Big congrats on hitting Version 1.0! That’s a huge milestone for any project. If you have a specific roadmap or features you’re looking to prioritize for 1.1, it’d be cool to see them pinned. Happy to help test out the release!

Thanks pratikrath126

I do have a kind-of roadmap to 1.1 and even 1.2. Maybe pinning them up would not be bad idea at all
