This article summarizes the current state of the StarBlog project and outlines the development plans for version 2. StarBlog has been in development for over 2 years, starting from 2022. As a self-hosted blogging platform, it's surprising how quickly time flies, and before we know it, we've been maintained a stable version for two years. I was supposed to write a conclusion piece for the first phase of the project, but the fact is, after a project is stable and usable, it's hard to find the motivation to update it, especially for a blog post that essentially serves as a technical note.
In any case, the blog address is still active: blog.deali.cn If you're interested in the project, please feel free to explore the blog and leave a message. Or, if you're an experienced developer, you could consider contributing to the project or helping us improve it.
The following is the planned development roadmap for StarBlog v2:
### Short-term goals (next 3-6 months)
* Improve user experience for the web interface
* Optimize server-side performance and scalability
* Introduce a mobile app for easier content creation and management
### Mid-term goals (next 6-12 months)
* Enhance the plugins system for third-party integrations
* Introduce a paid subscription model for advanced features and support
* Develop a RESTful API for programmatic access to blog content
### Long-term goals (next 1-2 years)
* Introduce AI-powered content generation and analysis tools
* Implement machine learning-based topic modeling and recommendation engine
* Enhance the platform's security and stability
