Long-Term Vision¶

Multi-Agent Coordination¶

Enhanced support for multiple agents contributing to the same UI:

Recommended agent composition patterns
Conflict resolution strategies
Shared surface management

Accessibility Features¶

First-class accessibility support:

ARIA attribute generation
Screen reader optimization
Keyboard navigation standards
Contrast and color guidance

Advanced UI Patterns¶

Support for more complex UI interactions:

Drag and drop
Gestures and animations
3D rendering
AR/VR interfaces (exploratory)

Ecosystem Growth¶

More framework integrations
Third-party component libraries
Agent marketplace integration
Enterprise features and support
