About Outline
Outline keeps shipping editor and integration polish — with a striking absence of AI.
Outline is on a roughly monthly cadence inside classic team-wiki territory: a GitLab integration that mentions issues and merge requests with live updates, a third round of table improvements (drag-to-reorder columns/rows, cell background colors, better numeric/date sorting), toggle blocks, passkey login, Draw.io diagram support, and PDF embeds. Cadence is steady; surface area is narrow.
