Roadmap (original) (raw)

This is a covering ticket for the Pion WebRTC roadmap. If you have any requests feel free to leave them here/vote on others.

Planet Strike -- 1.0.0 (2018-06-20)

• SRTP (in Go)
• ICE-lite (We only respond to binding requests, requires host candidates. No STUN or TURN)
• DTLS (In C, using OpenSSL)
• API that allows users to receive media that closely matches the Javascript WebRTC API
• API that allows users to send media that closely matches the Javascript WebRTC API

Aliens of Gold -- 1.1.0 (2018-09-00)

• DataChannels
• STUN
• Full ICE (currently ice-lite only)
• Bundling

Quest for the Sigil -- 1.2.0 (2018-12-00)

• Port DTLS to Go from cgo (currently using OpenSSL)
• Mobile Support
• Transport Refactor

Spear of Destiny -- 2.0.0 (2019-04-00)

• ORTC
• Unified Plan
• DataChannel improvements (configurable reliability)
• Logging and ICE debugging
• Experimental QUIC support
• Experimental WebAssembly (WASM) support
• API Cleanup to better match the WebRTC Spec.
• Reliability improvements to SCTP and therefore Data Channels.
• ICE Regular Nomination

Beyond Heretic -- 2.1.0 (2019-08-00)

• TURN
• Trickle ICE
• mDNS Candidates

The HUNT Begins - 2.2.0 (2019-11-00)

• SCTP Performance Improvements (16x in some cases!)
• Extend SettingEngine to support SFU use cases
• TCP TURN Support
• PCM Support
• Add/Remove tracks at runtime
• IVF Reader to enable saving to disk

Future Shock - 3.0.0 (2020-12-14)

• ICE Restarts
• ICE TCP Candidates
• Remove non-Trickle ICE. Provide utility that emulates old behavior.
• SRTP AEAD_AES_128_GCM. Significant performance improvement in media crypto!
• Simulcast.
• Improved Media API so user doesn't need to managed PayloadType and SSRC
• Interceptor API that allows users to implement NACK, FEC and Congestion Control via Public API

Plutonia - 3.1.0 (2021-08-01)

• Transport Wide Congestion Control Interceptor, better Congestion Control then Sender+Receiver Reports
• H265 Packetizer
• FireFox Simulcast Support
• Sender/Recevier Report interceptors, can be used in pion/webrtc or outside
• UDPMux, Multiple PeerConnections can be served via the same UDP Port

System Shock 3.2.0 (2023-04-25)

• Congestion Control Interceptor
• AV1 Support
• Simulcast Sender
• Stats Interceptor

4.0.0 (2024-10-01)

• Active ICE TCP
• JitterBuffer Interceptor

4.1.0 (?)

• DTLS Restart

No date picked

• Serialize/Deserialize PeerConnection API
• Performance/Allocation testing to GitHub Actions
• Auto Change log generation/Remove manual process of releasing
• Automate fuzz testing, submit Pion to oss-fuzz
• H264 Interceptor (Analyze and attempt to fix common issues like no SPS/PPS with every IDR)
• Harden security (fuzzing and other automated tooling)
• TinyGo support. Pion for IoT devices

These things are ordered in the importance we have gotten from feedback. If you are building something and need a feature sooner please comment and we can move things around!
