## Shipping today

### Public browsing

* public module browsing with grouped Any / All tag filters and manufacturer filters

### Personal workspace

* module collection tracking
* rack creation and editing
* patch creation and editing
* global search across the user area

### Rack workflow

* visual layout planning with undo, stale-preview indicator, and a weakest-axis hint
* duplicate / delete / blank-panel actions
* multi-panel support where available
* Power, function, layout, and signal analysis modes; layout mode adds Same HP/Combos suggestions plus Remix and Shuffle, subject to valid row formats and available module metadata. Analysis output quality depends on module data coverage — see [Racks](/core-workflows/racks.md) for the full description.

### Patch workflow

* module-based patch capture
* connection documentation
* notes and naming for recall
* Patches distinguish repeated copies of a module as numbered instances, so each connection targets the intended copy.
* patch graph view, fullscreen mode, and PNG export
* opaque `public_id` share URLs (legacy numeric links for public patches redirect; legacy numeric links for private patches are retired)
* auto-save for patch state and edits

### Module workflow

* module detail with discovery, analysis, panel variants, and community stats — see [Modules](/core-workflows/modules.md#analysis)
* Submit New Module and Submit-Similar contribution flows

### Project shape

* open-source codebase (Angular, TypeScript, Supabase; served through Vercel)
* public data browsing without an account
* linked sign-in with multiple providers — see [Account and privacy](/core-workflows/account-and-privacy.md)
* mobile-friendly product direction

## Still actively improving

Patcher is still evolving. Areas that continue to move include:
