Andromea — Roadmap

Phase 1

Foundation

Complete

The full frontend surface of the platform — every major page built as a guest-view, design language established, shared systems wired. The world has a face before it has a backend.

✓World map — Leaflet.js, 4-tier hex grid, element layer, creator mode toggle

✓History — timeline, era ribbon, collapsible events, sticky era navigation

✓Compendium hub — Bestiary, NPCs, Guilds & Factions, Alternate Rules & Tooling

✓Chronicle — Worldbuilder pins, collaboration calls, annotations, discoveries, reply threads

✓Bazaar — two-track creator directory, profiles, services, calling card component

✓About, FAQ, Roadmap

✓Shared design system — nav, Crier, footer, CSS variables, fonts

✓Content preview model — browsable but vague, full detail behind purchase gate

Phase 2

Identity

In Progress

Accounts, authentication, and the signed-in layer. The platform goes from a static world to one that knows who you are and shows you what you own.

·Login and signup flows

·Account creation — standard and guest-checkout deferred paths

·Creator profile editing — bio, tagline, services, availability

·Signed-in map layer — creator mode, owned slot visibility, element management

·"Add Your Story" contributor onboarding flow

·Signed-in review — walk every page as creator and Worldbuilder, identify gated surfaces

·System dependency document — full cross-section impact map before backend begins

Phase 3

Creation

Upcoming

The backend infrastructure that makes the world writable. Element slots become purchasable, content becomes submittable, and the map becomes a living storefront.

·Backend infrastructure and database

·Element slot purchasing — Claim a Spot flow, guest checkout

·Content submission pipeline — story, monsters, maps, NPCs, lore

·Content review and moderation queue

·Element panel full build — content display, purchase gate, discussion thread

·Chronicle Discovery post automation — system-generated events

·Cross-section tag system — unified search across Compendium, History, Chronicle

·Hex-first slot architecture — coordinates derived from grid, never independently assigned

·Populate the originating elements Andromea will be built upon

Phase 4

Commerce

Upcoming

Payment infrastructure, creator payouts, and the full economic cycle. The world becomes self-sustaining — creators earn, the platform operates, and the cycle repeats.

·Stripe integration — Connect for creator payouts, checkout for consumers

·Creator royalty system — earnings dashboard, payout schedule

·Consumer purchase flow — element buying, receipt, content delivery

·Bazaar commission flows — request, agreement, milestone delivery

·Elite Creator subscription tier

·Monetization deep dive — pricing, revenue share, upsells finalized

·Legal documents live — ToS, Privacy Policy, Creator Agreement, OGL attribution

Phase 5

Growth

Future

The platform matures. The rough edges get polished, the ecosystem deepens.

·Mobile layout — full responsive pass

·Quest chains and narrative element bundles — cross-location story arcs

·Marker clustering — density UX for high-element regions

·Telemetry and engagement analytics

·Calling card OG image generation — dynamic social preview cards

·Region centroid tooling — Worldbuilder admin for map navigation anchors

·Additional continents TBD — new map canvases beyond Andromea

·Publisher Resources portal

Phase 5 items are directional — scope and sequence will be refined as earlier phases complete.
