FY21-22 Architecture User Story Roadmap
- Nimisha Asthagiri (Deactivated)
The following User Story Map provides a high-level overview of the work that edX’s Teams and the Open edX Community are collaboratively delivering over the next few quarters, which include Koa and Lilac releases. These items were taken from the earlier list gathered at Needed Architecture Investments.
As with any roadmap, there is more uncertainty as you look further into the future. However, this still provides a common understanding of what we plan to tackle and what we are leaving on the table. If you have the interest and time in tackling any of the items still listed in the “Backlog” lane, please reach out to @Nimisha Asthagiri (Deactivated) to coordinate the effort. Thanks!
