Instead of working on as many new features as possible, we chose a select few projects and spent the rest of our time improving the technology Padlet runs on. The result is a few high-impact features that should make your life easier immediately, and a host of engineering improvements that will make us faster and more reliable moving forward. As always, below you'll find a rundown on our most significant new features, as well as a never-before-seen sneak peek into the engineering world of Padlet.
