Roadmap

Version 0.1

  • Native macOS SwiftUI/PDFKit app.
  • Local PDF opening.
  • Reading controls: scrolling, zoom, fit width, fit page, page navigation, search.
  • Focused default reading mode with optional page thumbnail sidebar.
  • Highlight, underline, selection-bound comment, and free-text annotations.
  • Anchored comment popovers from newly created selected-text comments, highlights, underlines, free text, and clicked annotations.
  • Annotation list sidebar.
  • Optional comments review sidebar with grouping, collapsed filtering, replies, and navigation.
  • Save, Save As, and native macOS sharing with standard PDF annotation writing.
  • .app and .dmg build scripts.
  • Visual QA screenshots for empty, reading, popover, comments, and dark-mode states.

Version 0.2

  • More explicit visual selection handles for the active annotation.
  • Better undo/redo integration for annotation edits.
  • Optional author identity preferences.
  • More granular sidebar and inspector layout memory for complex multi-window workflows.
  • Fully standards-compliant reply-thread relationships through a lower-level PDF writer if PDFKit continues rejecting object-valued /IRT.

  • Import/export verification fixtures for existing annotated PDFs.

Later

  • Optional OCR for scanned readings.
  • Optional citation metadata display.
