+## Project Roadmap
+
+This document outlines the implemented features and the future goals for the project.
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> This roadmap is a work in progress and is subject to change.
+
+### Core Features
+
+- [x] Term representation (`Constant`, `Null`, `Variable`)
+- [x] Atom structure (predicate with terms)
+- [x] Database instance (set of ground atoms)
+- [x] Tuple-generating dependencies (TGDs)
+- [x] Rule builder with fluent API
+- [x] Variable substitutions
+- [x] Atom unification
+- [x] Core chase algorithm
+- [x] Restricted chase (trigger tracking for termination)
+- [x] Existential variable support (labeled null generation)
+- [x] Multi-atom rule bodies (conjunctive queries)
+- [x] Multi-atom rule heads
+- [x] Constants in rule patterns
+
+### Chase Variants
