## Development is a bit slower
|

|

Please note that this is a big release with several features that requires coordination of several people that spends their free time doing this.
|
||||
It is a huge endeavor and we can't give any ETA's on when 0.9b will be released and done. We had an internal goal of December but...

We had an internal goal of December but sometimes IRL issues happen that takes away that time (work, family, life, death, love, etc..).
|
||||
|
||||
Everyone in FOSS have to always balance their commitment to free software and still do everything life entails.
|
||||
It is a huge endeavor as we are rewriting several aspects of RetroDECK and adding tons of new features. Thus we cannot give any ETA's on when 0.9b will be released and done.

But as the big Citra forks are merging into one, it feels better to wait until they have sorted everything sorted out and get the best project into RetroDECK proper. When their new repo is up and running we will target that.

We are looking into utilizing [UMU Launcher](https://github.com/Open-Wine-Components/umu-launcher) for Xenia (and other Wine based systems in the future).

|

Instead of pulling in all of vanilla Wine into RetroDECK and configuring it, UMU Launcher feels like a better architectural choice that can give more synergies in the future.

On the Steam Deck, Game Mode has no included web browser that can be launched via flatpak thus rendering the the wiki links and website links useless in Game Mode. We will probably keep the buttons but only have them shown in Desktop Mode (or any normal Linux Desktop).
|
||||
### Game Mode – No web browser / markdown viewer

||||
|
||||
We currently don't feel like we want to ship an entire web browser inside of RetroDECK to remedy it.

Game Mode has no included web browser that can be called via Flatpak thus rendering the wiki links and website links useless in Game Mode.

Instead we are looking into a sophisticated markdown viewer instead. That will give you the ability to sync the entire wiki down to local storage with the click of a button and have it readable no matter if you are online or offline.

Instead of a web browser, we are looking into a sophisticated markdown viewer instead to integrate into RetroDECK.

The general thought is if we can provide an option to manually synchronize the entire wiki down to local storage with the click of a button and have it readable no matter if you are online or offline and viewed via the markdown viewer.
