[outdated] adeira/universe roadmap

[mrtnzlml]

This megathread is about adeira/universe itself.

🤔 Verify signature of all files with @generated SignedSource<<…>> automatically

This way we could sign any file and CI would automatically verify them for us to make sure they were not manually altered.

🤔 Markdown TOC generator

GitHub markdown implementation doesn't support an automatic table of content generation. However, I find it useful sometimes so it would be nice if we could have some alternative (maybe with the ability to automatically send PRs).

🤔 Bazel build system

We want to support other languages, not just JavaScript. Moreover, we are sometimes hitting limitations of Yarn Workspaces (see our @babel/register hack). Bazel should resolve all these issues.

🤔 Automatically generate .eslintignore and .flowconfig files from the child configs

These files can be only in the root but that's a bit strange in a monorepo context. It would be nice if every project could define these configs and we automatically merge them together into one superconfig. Again, would be nice to have it completely automated including the PRs submission (so we don't have to think about it).

🤔 Automate flow-typed updates and maintenance

It would be nice to keep flow-typed definitions up to date and have more of them. But it's a lot of manual work. How about having it automated? That would solve a lot of problems and make the codebase more sound.

Already resolved tasks:

✅ Scanner for @adeira dependencies in yarn.lock (#1421)

We should not have any @adeira dependencies inside yarn.lock. Such a situation suggests that we didn't upgrade some dependency internally. It would be nice to catch such a mistake on CI. Possible solution: https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/tree/a4708b29ac74df97bac45365cba4f1d62537ceb7/packages/lockfile

✅ Automatic merge train (#1391)

It would be very handy to have something like "automatic merge train" where you could just approve a PR and it would be automatically rebased and merged when possible (even if there are many other PRs in the queue).
