+# Roadmap for Bundled Application
+
+A large majority of interactive notebook users use notebooks against a
+traditional SciPy stack. Sometimes installing this stack can be difficult.
+Although tools like `conda` make the process easier it can still be a
+hassle for some users. Our bundled kernel intiative aims to make this
+easier. By using the nteract application with a bundled kernel, the
+barrier to entry for using the SciPy stack with an interactive notebook
+is greatly reduced. Once users are comfortable with the setup, they can
+chose to adopt more complex stacks with their interactive notebooks.
+
+With a bundled kernel, users can download a version of the nteract application
+with a bundled conda environment for their system architecture. This reduces
+the hassle for users that just want to get up and running with a
+simple SciPy stack.

+# Roadmap for Git Integration
+
+Many notebook users utilize git and GitHub to manage versions of
+their notebooks and share them with others. Sometimes this process
+can be quite difficult as creating diffs of the notebook format
+comes with a lot of challenges. We are hoping to address this
+issue and create tightly-coupled git integration in the nteract
+desktop application. Which will allow users to create commits directly
+from the nteract interface and view visual diffs of their notebooks.

+# Roadmap for Real-time Collaboration
+
+Research and data science teams use and share the notebook amongst
+each other in order to complete their work. However, collaborating
+on the same notebook at the same time is a cumbersome process. Our goal
+is to simplify this process and implement real-time collaboration
+backed by GitHub gists.
