Unfold Studio is under active development! You're welcome to contribute new ideas or report bugs on the `Github issues page`_. Some of our top priorities:

.. _Github issues page: https://github.com/cproctor/unfold_studio/issues

- A full rewrite of the user interface
- The ability to add pictures and sounds to stories
- Internationalization (Unfold Studio's interface will show up in users' preferred language). Writing stories in multiple languages (and emoji!) is already supported and heartily encouraged.

Version 0.5 adds features that make it easier to teach with Unfold Studio.

- There is now a teacher role. Teachers can have groups of students. See :ref:`teacher_mode` for details. Currently, you can't sign up as a teacher on your own. Please see :ref:`contact` to request access.
- Teachers can assign :ref:`prompts` to students. Students see prompts they are assigned, and can submit stories to them. Teachers can see and comment on stories submitted to prompts, even if they are not publicly shared. 
- Authors can save versions of stories (:ref:`story_versions`). This is helpful for the writing process, and for long serialized stories, where your followers might want to know there's an update available.
- Added :ref:`comments`. 
- In comments, book descriptions, and prompts, it's now possible to add :ref:`link_references` to stories, books, and users that stay up to date and are contextualized for different users.
- Private installations give teachers and schools access to separate worlds, where content is only visible to logged-in members. 
- Added internal support for single sign on integration.
