 ## Warnings
 
 * This is still highly in development and the language's design is quite volatile.
-* Syntax is definitely not fixed

 ## Roadmap
 
 Not in any particular order
 
-* Custom backend to replace LLVM
-	- Improve SSA design to accommodate for lowering to a "bytecode"
-	- SSA optimizations
-	- COFF generation
-	- linker
-* Type safe "macros"
-* Documentation generator for "Entities"
-* Multiple architecture support
-* Inline assembly
-* Linking options
-	- Executable
-	- Static/Dynamic Library
-* Debug information
+* Compile Time Execution (CTE)
+	- More metaprogramming madness
+	- Compiler as a library
+	- AST inspection and modification
+* CTE-based build system
+* Replace LLVM backend with my own custom backend
+* Improve SSA design to accommodate for lowering to a "bytecode"
+* SSA optimizations
+* Parametric Polymorphism ("Generics")
+* Documentation Generator for "Entities"
+* Multiple Architecture support
+* Language level atomics and concurrency support
+* Debug Information
 	- pdb format too
-* Command line tooling
-* Compiler internals:
+* Command Line Tooling
+* Compiler Internals:
 	- Big numbers library
-
+	- Multithreading for performance increase
