Changelog

• The board works by touch. On a tablet or phone, hold on bare cork to open the add menu. Double tap to edit. Drag a thread from a pin. Pinch to zoom. Hold a record to add it to the selection.
• Controls grow to finger size. The board pans out from under the on-screen keyboard.
• From a home screen the app opens without the browser's bars. A full screen chip hides them for the session.
• A photo on its way to the board shows a chalk outline where it will land, with a bar that fills as the host receives the file.
• The host rejects a malformed update off the LAN with an error instead of stopping. The note editor no longer lets a paste carry script.

Boards from 1.2.0 open unchanged.

• Contact cards print like rotary file cards. Eight layouts, two inks and a mark, punched at the foot.
• The organization sets the print. Everyone at one firm carries the same card.
• Cards carry a department.
• One editor fills in new cards and old ones, with the card beside the fields as a proof.
• A card on the board takes no typing. The EDIT tab at its foot opens the editor.
• The manual on its hook has its coil. The calendar prints a fuller month.

Cards and boards from 1.1.1 open unchanged.

• Several offices on one machine. Each holds its own records. The host serves one at a time.
• The filing cabinet is racked in banks along a run: three drawer patterns, a plan chest for the archive, and a bay for the calendar and the manual.
• The index. Contact cards on the cabinet lid, on the desk and on the board.
• The board follows a trackpad pinch, coasts after a flung pan, and pans on the wheel.
• One glyph set on screen and in the manual.
• The manual opens at the anchor it was sent to. The glossary prints page numbers.

Boards from 1.0.0 open unchanged.

• A field manual hangs on the folders wall. Seventeen pages, twenty-five figures. The desk note saves it as a PDF.
• Event cards in four kinds: meeting, workshop, gathering, deadline.
• The wall calendar lifts its corner to show the month under it.
• Pin maps. A picture on white stock that takes pushpins of its own.
• Threads aim at the pin. Backspace cuts the selected one.
• The window drops its title bar. The board's lights run the full frame.
• Case files are renamed on the card. The drawer no longer edits the name.
• A charted board wears a map seal on its drawer.

Boards from 0.9.0 open unchanged.

Linux, in two AppImages. The cabinet has its depth back.

Linux. One build for Intel and AMD machines, one for 64-bit ARM: Raspberry Pi 4 and 5, other single-board machines, ARM Chromebooks. Each carries its own browser engine, so it installs nothing and needs no network. That is why it is 85 MB where the disk image is 20. It runs on a read-only root filesystem, which covers the Steam Deck and the atomic Fedora spins. It needs glibc 2.35 or newer: Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12, Fedora 36, or later. There is no .deb and no signature. The SHA-256 on the download page is the authenticity check, as it is beside the disk image.

• The drawers have depth again. The desktop app drew the cabinet as a flat front. The layout was right and the painting dropped it.
• A drawer's tabs hold together as one strip. Crossing from colour to Archive used to fall through the gap and shut the drawer.
• Archive and Delete lettering is legible on ordinary displays. It was drawn once and stretched.
• The colour tab is cut down to its chips.
• The wall calendar prints a different page each month. Two motifs join the set. The week starts on Monday in every locale.

Boards from 0.8.0 open unchanged, on either system.

The folders page is a filing cabinet. One drawer per folder.

• A drawer slides out when you reach for it. Its controls stand in the well beside it as paper tabs: colour, Archive, Delete. They take the click every time, which the old buttons did not.
• Archived folders stay in the cabinet, at the foot, taped shut and greyed.
• Papered walls, a calendar with a new print each month, a clock on the lid, and a plant that moves as the page scrolls.
• The version is on a brass plate on the plinth. Clicking it checks for updates.

Removed: folder templates. A folder marked as one is an ordinary folder now and no board changed. Also removed: exporting a single folder, and the menu that held it. Backing everything up is unchanged.

Boards from 0.7.0 open unchanged, and 0.7.0 can read what this release writes.

Mostly work underneath.

• A board that cannot open says so. It used to show an empty board and a spinner. OrgKit keeps retrying, so a board held open by another copy comes back on its own.
• Exports record which version of OrgKit wrote them.
• The storage engine is updated. A board that did not load in full is never written back over the copy on disk.

Boards from 0.6.0 open unchanged. Boards saved by this release open in 0.5.0 and 0.6.0, but not in 0.4.0 or earlier.

• See where the other person is typing. Their place in the text shows, named and coloured to match their pointer.
• Search marks the word inside a long note, not just the card.
• The window remembers its size, position and whether it was maximised.
• A second launch raises the window you already have. It used to start a second copy that failed to load any board.
• Video and audio scrub properly. Dragging through a long recording jumps to where you dropped it.
• The packages OrgKit is built on are up to date.

Boards from 0.5.0 open unchanged.

• Pull a thread to nowhere. Click a pin, then click empty board. A menu asks what goes there. The new note, photo or list arrives with the thread already tied.
• Captions on images and videos. A line of handwriting under the frame. Edit it while the object is selected. It hides when empty.
• The Connect dialog shows a QR code. Point a phone at it to open the board. The dialog names the network it is on, by name for wireless.
• Notes start at the same text size as todo items. The note editor switches between handwriting and mono.
• Quieter chrome. Folder cards lose the peeking paper and get a shorter tab. The board toolbar is slimmer. Icon buttons are the glyph alone.

Boards from 0.4.0 open unchanged.

• Check for updates. A control beside the version number on the folders screen. It fetches one file from orgk.it, compares versions, and says whether a newer build exists. It runs only when pressed.

Boards from 0.3.0 open unchanged.

• Todo lists. A checklist anyone in the room can add to and tick. Two people adding at once both keep their items. A tick carries the name of whoever made it. Exports as a task list.
• Drawers show their age. The label is worded from what the board holds. Wear around the pull tracks how full it is. A board nobody has opened in weeks gathers dust.
• The pinned case file carries its pin in the top right corner, like the link cards.

Boards from 0.2.0 open unchanged.

Fixes to the filing cabinet.

• Opening a drawer no longer hides the drawers above it on some machines. Each drawer draws in its own space.
• The file inside a drawer slides out with the drawer instead of appearing when it stops.
• Drawer fronts use a small texture instead of a filter the browser redrew every frame. Hovering across a full cabinet is cheaper.
• A tapped drawer no longer flashes a selection highlight, and holding it no longer selects text. Click still edits its name.
• Cards that link to another board carry their pin in the top right corner, clear of the title.

No change to boards, files or the network.

The first build. macOS only. Windows and Linux build from the same source and ship once each has been run on real hardware.

• Boards. Pin notes, photos, video, labels and polls. Draw string between the things that connect.
• Folders for boards, and links from one board to another.
• Live editing over the local network. Everyone works the same board at once. Changes merge instead of overwriting.
• Search across a board.
• No account, no cloud, no telemetry. Boards are files on the host machine.

The macOS build is signed and notarized. The firewall prompt the first time you host a board is expected. Say yes so the others can reach it.
