Gephi Desktop has been a "beta" version for more than a decade.

This just means that the team does not consider the tool to be <em>complete</em> yet.

We aim to implement the following features before getting "version 1.0":

Beyond the codebase, we also work on the project’s structure and other aspects. Next up we aim at this:

<li><strong>Undo</strong> feature, limited to the “GEXF scope”: network data, metadata, positions, sizes, colors…</li>

<li><strong>Default save to GEXF.</strong> More stable than “.gephi” though it does not save the state of the user interface.</li>

<li><strong>Activity log</strong>, possibly coordinated to undo, possibly stored in the GEXF. A plugin is already exploring that direction.</li>

<li><strong>Parallel edges.</strong> The GraphStore supports it but not the rest of Gephi.</li>

<li><strong>New GPU visualization engine.</strong> We aim for comfortably visualizing 200K nodes and 1M edges on an average consumer laptop. Might be ready soon!</li>

<li><strong>Curved edges in visual exploration.</strong> These are important because they help identifying edge orientation.</li>

<li><strong>Consolidate governance.</strong> Clarify roles, add content to our Open Collective platform, and improve onboarding.</li>

<li><strong>Raise funds and facilitate donations.</strong> We need funds for the Gephi Weeks and ultimately, for recurrent contributors.</li>
75

<li><strong>Recruit core contributors.</strong> Having developers familiar with the codebases is key to the sustainability of the project.</li>

<li><strong>Gephi Weeks.</strong> We meet for an entire week every year, and that’s a great moment to care for and contribute to the project.</li>
