How to suggest feature ideas

[needsofmany]

Purpose

Use this category for early feature ideas before they become scoped Issues or Design Proposals.

Good topics include:

• new export helpers
• new validation reports
• local viewer ideas
• importer or bridge ideas for other plural tools
• documentation helpers
• regular-user workflow improvements
• accessibility improvements
• database or reporting ideas
• website improvements

What helps

A useful feature idea should usually include:

• the problem it would solve
• who it would help
• what the feature might do
• whether it affects privacy, safety, exports, tokens, or private user data
• whether it belongs in the exporter, documentation, website, database layer, viewer layer, or future service layer

Privacy boundary

Do not post private Simply Plural exports, real System data, API tokens, screenshots containing private data, avatar images from real Systems, notes, messages, friend data, fronting history, logs, or database files created from real exports.

Use synthetic examples or carefully redacted descriptions.
