🚧 Known Issues & Limitations

Current Limitations

  1. Basic Error Handling: Limited user feedback for errors
  2. No Audio Visualization: Basic playback controls only
  3. Limited Format Support: Core formats only, no advanced codecs
  4. Basic GUI: Functional but not polished
  5. No Streaming: Local files only

Technical Debt

  1. Async Implementation: Some operations could be more async
  2. Error Types: Could use more specific error types
  3. Configuration Validation: Limited input validation
  4. Memory Management: Could be optimized for large libraries

📈 Development Velocity

Current Sprint Goals

  • Week 1: Fix compilation, basic testing
  • Week 2: Core functionality validation
  • Week 3: Feature completion
  • Week 4: Polish and optimization

Success Metrics

  • Application compiles without warnings
  • All unit tests pass
  • Basic audio playback works
  • Library scanning functional
  • GUI responsive and usable

🎯 Next Milestone: Alpha Release v0.1.0

Target Date: End of Week 4 Goal: Functional music player with core features working

Success Criteria:

  • ✅ Clean compilation on all platforms
  • ✅ Basic audio playback functional
  • ✅ Library management working
  • ✅ Playlist system operational
  • ✅ GUI responsive and usable
  • ✅ Configuration system working
