Whats New

=========

Obtvse 2 was rewritten entirely with a focus on being more user friendly, quicker, modern, and customizable.

**Features**

- Two new themes

- Easy addition of new themes and color schemes

- Built in user system with sorcery

- Support for Typekit fonts

- Turbolinks

**New Admin**

- New interface

- Live filter posts

- Post stats

- Split screen preview markdown that follows scroll position

- Full keyboard shortcut support

**Backend features**

- Slim templating

- Kramdown for markdown

- Coderay for syntax highlighting

- Bugfixes all over (still needs many more!)

Migrating

========

Obtvse 2 is compatable with obtvse's original database structure and migrations.  Migration is as easy as cloning this repo, pointing to your old database and running migrations.

TODO

====

Obtvse needs post history saving so you can mark versions of a post.  This would also allow for editing live posts without them updating live.
