openboard's Introduction

OpenBoard

OpenBoard is an open source cross-platform interactive white board application designed primarily for use in schools. It was originally forked from Open-Sankoré, which was itself based on Uniboard.

1.7.0 installers are available for Windows, OS X and Ubuntu on the Download's page.

Communnity-driven packages

On Linux, Ubuntu is the only officially maintained platform. For other platforms, you can thank the awesome community of OpenBoard that provides some cool stuff like a FlatHub package, or OpenSuse support. Check on this page to see if you find what you're looking for. If you actually want to provide support and to be referenced on this page, please open an issue with the relevant information, and we'll be glad to add your contribution.

Building from source

If you didn't find any installer for your platform, or if you want to modify OpenBoard, you can find instructions on how to build OpenBoard from source on the wiki.

Qt support

OpenBoard can be compiled with the latest open source binaries of Qt 5.15 and Qt 6. On macOS, it is recommended to use Qt 6. You should also be able to compile OpenBoard using Qt 5.12, but it is not officially tested/supported.
