The Classroom Aesthetic: Chalkboards & Whiteboards
Sometimes the best way to explain a concept is to write it on a board. We’ve added two new board styles to our blog: Whiteboard and Chalkboard.
1. The Whiteboard
The whiteboard style is clean, modern, and uses marker-like colors. It’s perfect for diagrams and brainstorming.

2. The Chalkboard
The chalkboard style brings a classic, academic feel. It uses a dark textured background and chalk-like fonts.
