> 3) PSR 12 (or even PSR 2!) coding style and PSR 4 autoloading (
> https://www.php-fig.org/psr/)
> 4) Installation via Composer?
> 5) Update documentation
> 6) Better logging of Errors and improved Error messages - most of the time
> we just see a blank screen, or a message that is very misleading e.g.
> "Something went wrong in a workflow" - would be much nicer if it told me
> which workflow! (Logging of errors by default as well, rather than having
> to actively switch it on!)
> 7) Making the codebase suitable to be managed via GIT after installation to
> allow for customisations - currently the GIT repository on code.vtiger.com
> contains multiple .zip files which are next to useless being managed in
> GIT. We maintain our own repository which is the code AFTER it has been
> installed, and fork that repository for every new installation we do. We
> also have created our own .gitignore (after MUCH trial and error!) so
> having a community version would be nice!
> 8) CLI database migration scripts for creating / updating database between
> different versions
