Roadmap

We still have a lot of things to do, to make Wexond better and better. This is just a beginning. So to improve our web browser we have created a roadmap so that you can see the next features and improvements.

Supported WebExtensions APIs

There is a lot of APIs, but we are only two very young programmers, so any help would be really appreciated and welcomed.
