| 8 | +# ObjectDocs Development Roadmap |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +This document outlines the development plan and feature roadmap for ObjectDocs, a GitHub-native documentation engine optimized for Vercel deployment. |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +## 🎯 Core Mission |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +ObjectDocs is purpose-built for **GitHub-based repository documentation** with seamless **Vercel deployment integration**. Our core objectives: |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +1. **Git-Native Workflow**: Leverage GitHub's collaboration features (PRs, reviews, issues) as the primary content management system |
| 17 | +2. **Zero-Config Deployment**: Push to GitHub, auto-deploy to Vercel with optimal caching and CDN distribution |
| 18 | +3. **Developer-First**: Treat documentation as code—version controlled, peer-reviewed, and CI/CD integrated |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +## 📅 Development Roadmap |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +### Phase 1: GitHub Integration & Vercel Optimization (Q1 2026) |
