Roadmap
What Paart already does, what is being built, and what we are considering — including sync destinations other than iCloud. No dates: states, not promises.
A date on a roadmap is a promise that goes stale without anyone noticing. A state is either true today or it is not.
What we build after the first release is decided by what people ask for — which is why the last section below is a vote rather than a list of our own intentions.
Built
In the app today, and in the first release.
- Imports the configurations you already have, by file or QR code
- Several tunnels at once on current macOS, when their routes can coexist
- Internal names: a client's names resolved through the tunnel by their DNS, every other name by this device's
- Keeps your connections in step across your own devices when you press “Synchronise Now”, through your own iCloud or your own SFTP server, sealed with a passphrase we never see
- Files connections into groups, sorts and filters them, and shares them as text with their QR code
- Watches the resources that matter on each connection and shows their state as soon as the tunnel is up
- Filters logs by connection, shows only errors, exports and shares them
- Switches DNS from a menu, without reopening a single configuration
- Provides Shortcuts actions to connect and disconnect a named connection, without bringing the app to the front
- Tells you when the connection you start overlaps one that is already up
- Gives a colour to the app, to each connection and to each group
- Checks internal names live: response time and the days left on their HTTPS certificate
In development
- Managed Paart — an OPNsense plugin you install on your own firewall — See its page for what it is, what it is not, and why it has no date.
- Paart for Windows — Coming soon. No date announced.
Considering
Nothing here is decided. What gets built after the first release is decided by what people ask for, and this is where you ask.

Somewhere else to sync
- WebDAV Nextcloud, a NAS, or your own hosting
