Roadmap

2020

While 2019 featured a host of improvements focused on the developer experience and the tools and libraries for PWA Studio, 2020 will bring a renewed focus on the shopper experience. The Venia reference storefront requires additional functionality/features to showcase a best-in-class example of a progressive web application for a robust web storefront. The core team focus for 2020 will be on delivery of Venia features in order to ensure developers have a more complete storefront to begin their own builds from. Additionally, it will provide merchants with a more robust example of what's possible with a PWA Studio developed storefront.

PWA Studio Release Notes

Current Priorities (2H 2020)

_We'll continue to focus on launching new Venia features and optimizing the existing Venia reference storefront to create compelling shopper experiences. Most importantly, the new feature development will also focus on desktop experience (where Venia has previously prioritized a mobile first approach). We'll continue the role out of the newly delivered extensibility framework including additional documentation and tutorials. We'll also revisit previous areas of Studio to ensure we are delivering the tools and frameworks necessary for best-in-class storefront management and operations.
