Changelog

We launched dedicated tutorial pages so each lesson now lives right on oSlate with a warm welcome, plain-language goals, and a guided path to follow.

Made the toolbar draggable on desktops with grab-and-go cursor cues. It now remembers its spot, stays within the viewport, and keeps the boards panel anchored right below.

Gave sticky notes a built-in ƒ(x) palette with instant-insert buttons for roots, sums, fractions, and more so math teachers can drop symbols without leaving the editor.

Typeset LaTeX across notes and text elements with MathJax, ensuring expressions like \sqrt{5} display crisply the moment they're added.

Launched the Mindmap AI GPT hub with educator-focused storytelling and a direct button to open the assistant on ChatGPT.

Updated the homepage hero GPT button so visitors head straight to the hub.

Slimmed the contact area so it sits comfortably on phones and desktops, keeping the invitation to reach out front and center.

Paired each article with its own chalky illustration and gentle fallback so the blog feels curated at a glance.

Introduced an adaptive toolbar that detects mobile screens, expands into a full-width tools drawer, and automatically closes after you pick an action so controls stay within thumb reach.

Kept desktop controls in a single line without stretching edge to edge, freeing canvas space while avoiding horizontal scrollbars.

Brush size buttons, sticky note colors, and the boards sheet now react to taps and touch gestures, keeping dropdowns centered above the toolbar on phones.

Unified pointer handling across text, sticky notes, images, and the hand tool so dragging and panning work smoothly on touch devices.

Fixed contact link in contact section, header and footer.

Delete images you no longer need. We shrink files over 1 MB, let you know if they're still too big, and each board can hold up to 10 images.

Pick a note font color from the toolbar, confirm with Add, and text stays readable as you zoom.

History actions no longer require double clicks.

Existing brush strokes redraw on zoom to avoid disappearing lines.

The canvas resizes to prevent dead zones at the right and bottom.

Move the board even when starting on text, sticky notes, or images.

Image drag offsets are corrected so they stay under the pointer.

Erased strokes disappear reliably after you release the mouse.

Unified domain type definitions for reuse across board modules.
