## Current state
2+
3+
Devtools is generally stable, most of the active development has moved to sub-packages like remotes and usethis, and relatively little code lives in devtools itself.

5+
## Known outstanding issues
6+
7+
I don't know of any major outstanding issues in devtools itself.
8+
9+
## Future directions
10+
11+
