NOW

Chores

• Node groups

Compositor

• Manage Samplers -- (Resources in general)
  • Blender previews (important !)
• Dump and read back state, (de)serialization!!!
• Non-negotiables:
  • Text (idea: index-based evaluation in plugboard)
  • Shapes (idea: embed glisp :mmtroll:, need to inquire -- still a lot of friction for simple shapes if we don't also get the glisp gizmos)
  • External data driving (csv, json or something else?) -- use a node to select source
• Data model for comps
  • Pre-compose/Layer Groups (jokes -- can be completely UI side)
• Motion blur

UI

• Key selection in comp panel
• Graph editor
• Node loop detection (separate DFS (extra work) or be smart in recursion)
  • detect time-sensitive nodes in tree and display on timeline
• Viewport gizmos (Layer-specific & nodes -- can separate into different tools?) -- Not sure how to go about this

Later

Compositor

• std::unordered_map -> std::flat_map pending compiler support
• Simple 3D engine

UI

• Adapt nodes for shader graph -- code editor will be fine for now

Audio

• Wait for SDL3!
  • SDL_mixer will be able to do all of wav ogg flac mp3 opus, we live in good times
  • output needs to be handled differently (if we care at all -- likely not)

IO

• Video import (research opencv libavcodec etc)
  • maybe https://superuser.com/a/1397578 -- no portable way to get stdout, this is messed up
    • boost::process? idk, might as well just go through a file
• File dialogues pending SDL3
  • https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL3/CategoryDialog
• Down the road: OIIO output for more than PNG's
  • don't care about video export -- leave it for ffmpeg
