Roadmap

• A nicer default theme, that looks like a professional news-site out-of-the-box. Until then you can reuse one of the existing Drupal themes, some work to style reviews might be needed.

• Provide more specific Rest API endpoints (filter by tag, ...).

• Internal search: Search published reviews by tags, authors, city, country, urls, claims, publishers, date, ...
