About the roadmap

[alkene0005]

Hi, I’m curious about the future roadmap — are there plans to add more APIs in the future?
Will the APIs from Hammerspoon be gradually implemented as well?

@alkene0005 Hi! I don’t have plans to extend this as far as Hammerspoon has gone. My wish is to keep Phoenix as a lightweight app and window manager — adding APIs and features as they make sense.

@kasper hey, I'm one of the maintainers of Hammerspoon and this question is quite relevant to something we're discussing at the moment...

Our codebase is both large and old, and has become quite challenging to work on with the available spare time we have. One of the options we're looking at is a plan that would see us migrate to Swift, and shift over from Lua to JavaScriptCore, but this would put us on a parallel course to Phoenix.

We figured we should reach out to you to see if there is any interest in collaborating, and to check if this would be seen by you as a hostile move by us. I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts!
