Here you can review the features we are currently working on, or planning to start. You can also share your own ideas and feature requests, and help shape the future of Avicenna.

Simply open the existing topics to learn more about upcoming features, or open one and vote for it to show the feature interests you.

Priority

Each topics in this category have a Priority, which shows how important that feature is, from 0 to 10, 10 being the highest priority.

Priority is directly impacted by the number of votes a feature has, but votes are not the only deciding factor. There are other factors impacting priority such as expected impact, estimated effort, and alignment with our long-term vision.

All these factors together determine the priority of a feature. Finally we always pick the feature with the highest priority and start working on.

Status (Subcategory)

Each feature is either in the Done, WIP, or To Do category, depending on the state of its development.

For you to suggest a new feature, you need to do that in the To Do category. Understandably, you cannot create a topic in WIP or Done ccategories.

Effort

Each feature has one of the following tags, which represents the amount of effort the feature requires in each domain:

  • BE:XXX shows the backend effort needed for this feature. It can have one of BE:None, BE:Low, BE:Medium, BE:High, or BE:Heavy tags.
  • FE:XXX shows the frontend (website) effort needed for this feature. Values can be similar to the above.
  • MO:XXX shows the mobile (Android & iOS) effort needed for this feature. Values can be similar to the above.

Avicenna comprises of 4 teams

  • Activity: responsible for surveys, cognitive tasks, notifications, sessions, and related topics.
  • Study: takes over all features related to study setup, deployment, and participation management.
  • Data: in charge of data sources, from smartphone and wearables.
  • DevOps: in charge of infrastructure, servers, site reliability, and system security.

Each feature has one of the following tags: Team:Activity, Team:Study, Team:Data, or Team:DevOps. This shows which team is expected to work on this feature.

These tags can give you more visibility on how features are being developed in Avicenna.
