Status and Roadmap

What gof already is, what is still in progress, and how to use the roadmap correctly.

The best way to understand gof is to separate three things:

what the language aims to become
what is already implemented
what is still bootstrap or intentionally incomplete

If you mix those three layers together, you will either underestimate the project or believe promises that have not been earned yet.

Already real

The current repo already supports:

typed functions
structs, payload enums, and methods
exhaustive match
lists, dicts, and parameterized builtin types
Result[T, E] and postfix ?
assert
process, filesystem, and path helpers
JSON helpers and bootstrap HTTP GET
channels, close, cancellation tokens, and select
go / await
language-level test fn, typed fixture(scope) fn, shipped testing stdlib, snapshot-aware gof test, and markdown doctests
a real CLI and a bootstrap-native build path
an installable VS Code editor baseline with syntax highlighting and snippets

Still in progress

The next major steps are:

richer stdlib growth without semantic mud
deeper testing slices: property/fuzz/stress, and benchmark gates
production-grade concurrency contracts
package system hardening
direct native code generation

These are not cosmetic milestones. They are the layers required for gof to move from "strong bootstrap language" toward "serious production language."
