What a wonderful day for posting!

This is groundbreaking, Steve. I have just downloaded SignMaker 2022 and I have it on my Macintosh desktop. And I enjoyed playing with it on my iPhone too.

Of course I have much to learn, but thank you for posting!

And thank you to everyone for your work with SignWriting in 2021. Every project and effort is building towards a really terrific 2022.

Feeling grateful -

Val ;-)

Download and unzip, then open "index.html" or "demo.html" in file manager on Windows or the Finder on Mac.  You can also set up SignMaker 2022 as a private server or a public mirror.  More details to follow.

I can fit it in during the early mornings and weekends.  2022 is going to be so much fun.  Together, we are going to create large datasets and apply machine learning for an amazing future.
