A good amount has happened since the last post, we gave another presentation, showing off our fledgling, new frontend. In addition, the backend has seen many improvements, both in terms of functionality and in terms of stability/mathematical accuracy.
The frontend utilizes individually draggable <div> tags instead of the single big <canvas> tag that the original version used. Also, the equation is displayed in a more traditional and natural way (e.g. denominators being below numerators, exponents being superscripts, etc.).
As far as future versions, we will continue to improve the stability of the backend while implementing more functions (i.e. math operators). Additionally, we plan to add features such as one-sided operations and history/undo/redo.
And not to be forgotten, Touch of Math will soon be true to its name. That is to say, we intend to add touch support to our current frontend, as well as some new gestures that take advantage of multitouch recognition.
The code containing all of our current features—and maybe even some additional features—will be available within the week!
That's all for now, we will post again when the new code is available,
Zach and Joe
