DMPR — Roadmap

Where we are today

v3.05 → v4.0 — Migration underway

Moving to a real database

A complete personal knowledge tool with 1,330+ bookmarks, now mid-migration from Google Sheets to Supabase (Postgres). Running in dual-mode — both backends live, switchable instantly — while the new foundation is proven.

The road ahead

v3.x

Done

Stabilization & Polish

Core reliability work — taming the sync layer so the same bookmark set holds steady across three devices used all day. With sync solid, the project jumped early into the v4.0 database migration rather than finishing every cosmetic pass first.

v3.1

Done

Sync Stability

Solved the recurring duplicate-bookmark bug with a layered fix: debounced writes, a unique sync ID to reject stale chunks, a write lock, and a cooldown that blocks auto-refresh mid-write. Confirmed steady across all three devices.

v3.2

Folded into v4.0

Bookmarklet Overhaul

Rather than polish the old Google Apps Script bookmarklet, it was rebuilt directly on the new backend — eliminating the auth-redirect problem entirely. Auto-fills credentials, smarter tag suggestions, clear save confirmation.

v3.3+

Deferred

iOS, Android & Theme Polish

Deferred until after the database migration settles. Simpler iOS setup and confirmed share-sheet support, Android testing and setup, cross-page theme sync, better photo color extraction, and a subtle logo animation. Picked back up once v4.0 is stable.

v4.0

Now

Infrastructure Migration

The biggest architectural shift — pulled forward from "later" because the Google Sheets backend grew too fragile at scale. Google Sheets and Apps Script are being replaced by Supabase, a managed Postgres database with a direct REST API. Data is migrated; the app runs in dual-mode (both backends switchable) while Supabase is proven. Same features, same data, dramatically stronger foundation.

v4.0

cleanup

Retire Apps Script

Once Supabase has run as the sole backend for a stable stretch, remove the Google Sheets / Apps Script code paths entirely and drop the dual-mode toggle. The sheet stays as a cold backup.

v4.1

Google Sign-In via Supabase Auth

Replace the simple allowed-email check with proper Google Sign-In through Supabase Auth — a cleaner, managed auth layer. Google is the only sign-in method. This keeps DMPR a private personal tool with a solid login, without the complexity of a multi-user platform.

v4.2

Native File Attachments

Notes file attachments stored natively in Supabase Storage rather than as base64 in the database. Images, PDFs, and any file type stored properly and served efficiently.

v4.3

Real-time Sync

Replace 30-second polling with Supabase real-time subscriptions. Changes appear instantly across all open devices. Add a bookmark on iPhone, see it on the laptop in under a second.

Guiding principles

Auth

Google sign-in

Infrastructure

Browser-managed

Supabase replaces Sheets and Apps Script — a managed Postgres database with a direct REST API, administered entirely from the browser. No servers to maintain.

Growth

Invite-only launch

Multi-user launches as invite-only. Controlled growth while infrastructure scales. Open signup comes after stability is proven.

Promise

The core experience never changes

Every feature that exists today — bookmarks, notes, snippets, analytics, themes, mobile, bookmarklet, collections — stays exactly as it is through every version. Infrastructure changes are invisible to the user. Multi-user adds capability, it doesn't replace what works.
