JayBoard documentation
How to capture the web into a private library, organize it, and arrange it on a moodboard.
JayBoard is three things that work together. A Chrome extension captures images, videos, links and whole pages from wherever you are. A library keeps what you captured as real files, in projects, with tags and descriptions. Moodboards let you arrange the best of it on an infinite canvas.
