Board navigation
Great app ! But :
- how to save / exit a board ? seems only option is to close browser window
- how to open a previous board ? seems only way is to reload url
I think I can cope with this. but from user perspective, closing the window seems like throwing their work.
And re-opening would be nicer with a menu of boards. Or is this a user authentication issue ?
Hello !

Yes, the board is always saved, every change is immediately persisted. You can close it when you want and you won't lose anything.

You can also type the board name in the text field on the main page.
And re-opening would be nicer with a menu of boards. Or is this a user authentication issue ?
This could be implemented without authentication, by storing recent board names in the browser's localStorage, for instance. Pull request welcome !
Hello, @lovasoa. I'd like to work on this issue.
I figured I could save board names to localStorage in board.js. But since localStorage is not available on the server, I can’t think of a way to pass the data to the home page. Any ideas?
What if instead of using localStorage, I save the most recent 20 board names in a file called recent-boards.json, which will be stored in the server-data directory?

Great to hear !

Yes, the personal board history should not be saved on the server. It could be saved in localStorage, and rendered dynamically on the client-side. You will have to add a script to the index page to render the list.
