A roadmap provides a goal. Without something to work towards and specific milestones, you can easily lose track of your application's intention.

Start by writing down what you want the application to do by v1.0.0. Then prioritize by what features need to be implemented first.

A roadmap will help guide your overall design and programming of the project and help keep it coherent and consistent.

Regarding the actual implementation of a roadmap into an application, I would take a look at existing examples, for instance GitHub's roadmap feature.
