I'm not sure what you mean by prospects? But I'll assume you mean technical projects or product features?
We're excited to write more and more of our Android app in Kotlin -- we love using it to build our app so far.
We're really looking forward to getting on Swift 4 -- we really want to be able to take advantage of faster compile times and other improvements that we need to be able to iterate more quickly when doing iOS feature development.
We're pretty excited about using Airbnb's Storybook to better manage our web component library, since consistent web components is a problem we've been working on solving and we really like how Storybook has done that in many ways.
We also have been iterating on our variant testing framework and systems for segmenting and testing things like emails and mobile notifications. We're really excited about being able to experiment with those things and iterate on them faster than we ever have been before, and make our product better in that way for our members. We built our own in-house variant testing framework, but use Appboy extensively for creating and segmenting new emails and notifs (without the need for engineers to build them).
