Organize pages into documents:
Duplicate pages and scraps with gestures:
Ink sticks to imported images:
Use ruler for straight or curved lines:
Scissors can cut imported images:

First, clone the Loose Leaf repository and initialize all submodules:
git clone git@github.com:adamwulf/loose-leaf.git
cd loose-leaf
git submodule update --recursive --init
Next, you'll need to add your own client ids and secrets for MS App Center, Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Imgur, and Mixpanel. All of these are stored in a file called AppIds.plist. To get this file setup, copy from the template file:
cp Project/LooseLeaf/AppIds-Template.plist Project/LooseLeaf/AppIds.plist
open Project/LooseLeaf/AppIds.plist
If you don't have ids for some of these services, leaving them blank will still let you build and run the app, though some features may not work.
That's it for configuration - now you can build the app and run it on your iPad!

Some great places to get involved and help make Loose Leaf better for everyone:
Loose Leaf includes a spacecommander as a submodule to help with keeping code style consistent. Please format all your code before submitting a PR by using the included format-all.sh and format-staged.sh scripts.
Much of the Loose Leaf codebase is separated into separate submodules:
The master
branch contains all in-development code. The alpha
branch contains the settings used for App Store releases. Each App Store release is tagged. The marketing
branch shows hand shadows during gestures and is used to record demo videos.
Many of the icons used in Loose Leaf were created in PaintCode. Other icons were created with Photoshop. Both .paintcode and .psd files are included in the Icons directory.
This repo also includes two apps used during development of Loose Leaf:
