Roadmap of EAV and 2sxc - Vision of the Future

The 2sxc roadmap contains the things we think are fairly important to tackle next. Since we're all working for free, there is no commitment to do this in the order you see below. And sometimes a customer will need a feature quickly - and pay for it - then it will appear sooner.

Tip

You too can sponsor a feature to make things happen sooner!

Last Update: 2026-01-07

Priority 2026 Q1

Tip

The main priority is to finalize a lot of things which are already done, but often not fully documented or waiting for final tweaks.

Also to release an LTS fairly soon.

Bigger Stories - not yet planned

public API to create entities
DNN WebApi base class which is MVC based
API security ticket system, to allow special access to APIs based on a ticket which Razor or similar can provide temporarily
...possibly also so that security access is controlled centrally and the same for DNN/Oqtane
Blazor Server Templating for Oqtane - would probably only make sense, if run-time compilation is available
Reorganize and improve C# unit testing, especially for complex scenarios where the setup is difficult and hard to maintain
SQL based lists, for very large lists which don't fit into memory
...possibly with edit-ui support to actually edit the data
EAV-UI: Refactor how the schema is processed (with multi-language) to allow alternate schemas to be used which are less complex
File based App State - which also allows edit / save - which would make many variants of unit-testing much easier
APIs / Systems to easily code changes - such as app-creation, content-type creation and more.
Extension points - for example on data-save - to allow custom validation, security-checks, modifications or search-integrations.
Generic WYSIWYG integration, to allow other editors than TinyMCE
Try to drop the Angular Zone on eav-ui
Try to drop the Angular Zone on quick-dialog

Next Priority: cre8magic for Oqtane

2026 Q2 is going to focus mainly on cre8magic, not 2sxc.

also...

Oqtane Menu Control
Oqtane Multi-language
Oqtane professional theme

Q2

Improve CSP in Oqtane 5 (once SSR is ready)
Create a User service to get more user data

also...

Improve Pickers all kinds of small issues
1. tree
Improve Oqtane Pages DS to also respect all known settings - @STV
Finalize Deprecation system @2dm
Improve CSP so it can work in a pure DNN skin without 2sxc @STV

Post LTS

Apps / App Maintenance: publish other new apps
1. New timeline
2. Files
3. etc.
CSP - ca. 5d
1. ⏳ CSP Tutorials, docs and more
Standardize / complete IDataBuilder API
User Service - requires some final decision in regards to the data-format returned

Blazor CMS / cre8magic

⏳ cre8magic - auto-generate sitemap.xml

Minor: Tutorial App Enhancements

Get tutorial app to run perfectly on Oqtane - ca. 0.5d 2dm

Random Backlog

2sxc

Page Level Settings and Metadata
User Help / Manual in-page
Plan new Metadata Target/Address system using only a string
Major update on dropdowns/selectors
Improve Export-Import Bundles
1. Ability to create bundles in the Admin UI
2. Ability to review bundles and what's inside in the Admin-UI
3. Ability to download/export bundles
4. Ability to import bundles in the Admin-UI
