Sekura Roadmap Update — October Progress

Everything continues according to the plan outlined in our previous roadmap.
Sekura’s development remains on schedule — preparing for the first public testing release (v0.1) in November 2025.

✅ October Achievements

This month, Sekura completed the foundation of its asynchronous architecture, forming the technical core of the upcoming Sekura IDE.

Highlights:

  • Unified context model using shared_ptr<JsonEntry> — now referencing RapydJson for high-speed DOM parsing and serialization.
  • Verified bidirectional synchronization between UI and Manager layers via integration tests.
  • Manager now supports multi-threaded task handling, ensuring asynchronous updates and non-blocking operations.
  • Implemented Lazy Merge Context (LMC) as the universal synchronization principle across UI, logic, and storage.

These results mark the end of the architectural stage and the beginning of functional assembly.

🧩 Architectural Shift: From Qt to Dear ImGui

In October, Sekura made a strategic transition from Qt GraphicsScene to Dear ImGui as its primary rendering and UI framework.

Key benefits:

  • Lightweight, immediate-mode rendering optimized for real-time editing.
  • Platform independence and easier embedding (desktop, web, and standalone).
  • Seamless integration with Sekura’s asynchronous event model.
  • Simplified control hierarchy and dynamic state reflection.

This change paves the way for a faster, more flexible IDE architecture — perfectly aligned with Sekura’s principles of minimalism and responsiveness.

🚀 Coming in November — Sekura IDE v0.1

The next milestone is the release of Sekura IDE v0.1 — the first testable build for early contributors and Founders.

Version 0.1 will include:

  • Link creation (Q / Shift+Q)
  • Basic Extraction tools
  • Context-aware dialogs, menus, and tree view
  • Partial refactoring and inline documentation
  • Experimental AI-assisted editing

The November release will mark the first time Sekura’s full workflow — visual editing, linking, and asynchronous context handling — can be experienced hands-on.

Sekura continues to evolve peacefully, purposefully, and on balance — one step closer to a living ecosystem for creators.

Stay tuned for the November release.
