# Roadmap

Yabridge's VST2 and VST3 bridging are feature complete and should work great, but there are still some other features that may be worth implementing. This page lists some of those.

# Short-ish term

- ARA support for VST3 plugins. The ARA SDK has recently been open source, so we can now finally start working on this.

# Longer term

- An easier updater through a new `yabridgectl update` command for distros that don't package yabridge.

# Somewhere in the future, possibly

- CLAP audio thread pool support. Implementing this efficiently is less than trivial, and there are currently no plugins that can benefit from it.
- REAPER's vendor specific VST2.4 and VST3 extensions.
- Presonus' extensions to the VST3 interfaces. All of these extensions have been superseded by official VST3 interfaces in later versions of the VST3 SDK, so it's unlikely that there are many plugins that still rely on these older extensions.
