There’s plenty to be done on the [Road to 1.0 — 47 issues to be exact](https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/milestone/1). We are trying something a little different and out-of-the-norm for open source projects. We’ve decided to break down our December goal to 1.0 into [two week sprints](https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/projects/5). This is to help better organize efforts while enabling the community to know the primary focus of our efforts. !\[\](/v3/img/blog/Screen Shot 2017-09-28 at 9.20.24 AM.png) ## The next sprint During our planning session many of our contributors shared their plans for the next two weeks. **Development:** - Getting the text editor ready to go [\[ISSUE 373\]](https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/issues/575) - Getting the media library set up [\[ISSUE 350\]](https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/issues/350) **Documentation:** - Updating docs with Git Gateway [\[PR 626\]](https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/pull/626), [\[ISSUE 600\]](https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/issues/598) - Continued efforts around a better outline for docs [\[ISSUE 598\]](https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/issues/598) **Design:** - We are conducting UI/UX user testing. To make more educated decisions about the roughly 16 [current design issues](https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Adesign), we are asking for help finding potential user testing subjects. We’re looking for individuals who work with content and (may) have worked with CMSes before, but are new to Netlify CMS. It’s 30-60 minute commitment, and comes with a $40 gift card as a thank you. Interested folks can email [tim@netlify.com](mailto:tim@netlify.com), with the subject, “Netlify CMS user study.” **Community:** - Would love to see more blogs, tutorials, templates, and assistance with documentation coming from the community. - We’d also like to see people [submitting issues](https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/issues/new) to let us know where you need help in getting started or feel tutorials/ documentation could be improved. Hopefully this gives you some insights as to what we are working on for the next couple of weeks! **Special thanks to our contributors—none of this would be possible without you!** We encourage you to check out our [next planning session](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/netlify-cms-planning-session-bi-weekly-tickets-35794058994), join our [gitter channel](https://gitter.im/netlify/NetlifyCMS) to chat, or [follow us on twitter](https://twitter.com/NetlifyCMS) for the lastest news! ### Share - [X (fka Twitter)](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=Netlify CMS Planning: Working in Sprints&url=https://www.netlify.com/blog/2017/09/28/netlify-cms-planning-working-in-sprints//) - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.netlify.com%2Fblog%2F2017%2F09%2F28%2Fnetlify-cms-planning-working-in-sprints%2F%2F) - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://www.netlify.com/blog/2017/09/28/netlify-cms-planning-working-in-sprints//) - [Bluesky](https://bsky.app/intent/compose?text=Netlify CMS Planning: Working in Sprints+https://www.netlify.com/blog/2017/09/28/netlify-cms-planning-working-in-sprints//) * * * ### Tags - [Netlify CMS](/blog/tags/netlify-cms/) ## Keep reading ![](/_astro/293b82c564c394853a3b9f6f7c4df278dd41846d-1200x675_4A4KF.webp) News & Announcements August 25, 2026 [ ### Compete in OpenAI’s WebMCP Challenge with Netlify ](/blog/compete-openai-webmcp-challenge) - ![Profile picture of Karthik Puvvada](/_astro/e5524d3c315ad5114e1d5300d8991bfe902916fe-192x192_Z1w18MB.webp) Karthik Puvvada ![](/_astro/0650db9aa1a0dd8f146c91d7c19161c57ba0833a-1600x900_Z1nSiGU.webp) News & Announcements August 19, 2026 [ ### New clarifying questions in Agent Runners ](/blog/new-clarifying-questions-in-agent-runners) - ![Profile picture of Taylor Barnett-Torabi](/_astro/cf4624da8c1286738397b6fecb53bad504df140b-400x400_ZsvK0s.webp) Taylor Barnett-Torabi ## Recent posts News & Announcements August 25, 2026 [ ### Compete in OpenAI’s WebMCP Challenge with Netlify ](/blog/compete-openai-webmcp-challenge) - ![Profile picture of Karthik Puvvada](/_astro/e5524d3c315ad5114e1d5300d8991bfe902916fe-192x192_Z1w18MB.webp) Karthik Puvvada News & Announcements August 19, 2026 [ ### New clarifying questions in Agent Runners ](/blog/new-clarifying-questions-in-agent-runners) - ![Profile picture of Taylor Barnett-Torabi](/_astro/cf4624da8c1286738397b6fecb53bad504df140b-400x400_ZsvK0s.webp) Taylor Barnett-Torabi Opinions & Insights August 14, 2026 [ ### The full power of Git, without the friction: A conversation with Netlify CTO Dana Lawson ](/blog/netlify-source-with-netlify-cto-dana-lawson) - ![Profile picture of Dana Lawson](/_astro/856bf146d0c05c9dc25d45b59f7eac955fbbd644-512x512_1n84rs.webp) Dana Lawson ![](/_astro/3f255b372fa958df35802666ee33b4609b2d71bd-1200x1586_1VtE2D.webp) ### How do the best dev and marketing teams work together?
