    Make Domino Designer a modern IDE

    Compared to other modern IDEs, Domino Designer is outdated. Missing keyboard shortcuts, autocomplete, intellisense. All those useful features that modern IDEs have. Just honestly use VSCode for a week and compare it to the Domino Designer to feel ...

    Create own @Formula binded to LotusScript, another @Formula (or Java?) function(s).

    As you can do in Excel (Formula binded to VBA) and could do in 1-2-3. Would allow many new functions that are currently not easy/possible to create.Is also a way to be able to centralize @Formulas by creating an abstracted @Formula. PS : I am no...

    Please remove the 64k limit from NotesHTTPRequest

    Xpages, please Open Source and give back to community/OpenNTF

    Enhance LotusScript with Base64 encode/decode, MD5, SHA1, SHA256

    Please provide a native LotusScript interface to do Base64 encoding and decoding, and hash functions like MD5, SHA1, SHA256. Needed since Nomad does not have Java for speedy access to those functions, and these functions are needed on the web.

    Collapsable code loops in lotus script

    When looking at lotus script it would be super helpful in longer code sections to be able to collapse the code for while, do, for, etc loops - look at most other design development tools and this is a standard option.
