::: tip New: Multiplayer Mode
The new "Friends" feature gives you shared sessions with your friends, family or colleagues. Simply

::: tip Watch the talk 'Patching Democracy' now!
2020 was a great year for the project. Not only did we see the first big installment in
Northrhine-Westphalia with over 120,000 users, but on top of that were also invited to hold a
lecture at the [Remote Chaos Experience](https://rc3.world/rc3/event/rc3-40403-patching_democracy/).
You can find the talk 'Patching Democracy' here in full length:

Furthermore in the beginning of 2021 we introduced the project to the open source community at
[FOSDEM'21](https://fosdem.org/2021/). Watch the lightning talk (a shorter version of 'Patching
Democracy' focusing on the software) here:

## Roadmap :seedling:

This project is still evolving. Right now, we have the basic features needed, but there are many
more ideas in the pipeline. Some are coming in the next months, some are still in planning. But one
thing is certain – we're not done yet. Take a look:



Marketing Templates


Save even more time with professionally designed marketing material, ready to go.




Software-as-a-Service


No deployment is simpler than no deployment. Use our hosted solution and focus on your content.




Save progress


The election compass will remember where you left and recover your last session.




Election Reminder


Get notified on election day, to make sure you won't forget to vote.




Dark Mode


The election compass won't hurt your eyes during witching hour.




Real Life Mode


Print your election compass and use it with a pen and some instructions how to calculate the results.
