Detailed Roadmap

Q1

Q1.1 Define & Validate Architecture

We are proposing a design for the MDK architecture and refining it through open discussion with the community to ensure transparency and alignment with interested developers.

Q1.2 Start Development

Development of the new backend SDK (BE SDK) is already underway. It includes example implementations for open-source developers and an initial structure to enable community contributions.

Q1.3 Start Community Engagement

We have begun engaging key industry stakeholders to build a strong FOSS-driven community around MDK as foundational infrastructure for the Bitcoin mining industry.

Q1.4 New MDK Landing Page

A new landing page will be launched to position MDK publicly and present MiningOS as the reference implementation.


Q2

Q2.1 Extract MOS Components

We are extracting core components from MOS (UI, foundation, domain layers, feature modules, hooks, state management, theme system, etc.) as the initial contribution to the MDK UI Dev Kit.

Q2.2 Restructure Endpoints

We are improving MOS APIs to:

  • Move business logic to the backend
  • Provide a cleaner, upgraded API structure for the community

Q2.3 Start MDK-Based MOS Refactoring

After component extraction and API upgrades, MOS will be refactored on top of MDK and released as the first reference implementation.

Q2.4 MDK + UI DevKit v1

The partial extrapolation from MOS will be released as MDK + UI DevKit v1 in Q2.

Q2.5 Publish Plugin Architecture

We will publish:

  • Plugin implementation guidelines
  • Integration templates
  • Device type onboarding documentation

Q3

Q3.1 Finalize MDK-Based MOS Refactoring

The MDK-powered version of MOS is planned to be completed in Q3.

Q3.2 Security Audit of MDK-Powered MOS

An independent security audit of the MDK-powered MOS is planned by the end of Q3.

Q3.3 MDK + UI DevKit v2

The full extrapolation from MOS will be released as MDK + UI DevKit v2 in Q3.

Q3.4 Publish MDK Security Framework

We will establish and document a comprehensive security framework to guide developers and contributors in building secure integrations and applications.

Q3.5 Plugin Integration Library v1

Comprehensive documentation and integration support for the plugin library and associated UI components will be released.


Q4

Q4.1 MDK + UI DevKit v3

A refined and production-polished version of MDK and the UI Dev Kit will be released by year-end.

Q4.2 Plugin Architecture for External Contributions

We will provide:

  • Stable, documented interfaces for device integrations
  • Telemetry handling standards
  • UI extension mechanisms
  • Templates for new device types and UI components

This will allow contributors to quickly bootstrap integrations and extensions.
