Oppia trims its new learner dashboard and keeps fixing the edges

edtechopen-sourcelearner-dashboardrtl-supportcreator-tools
◆Current state
Oppia ships a version every few months, mixing learner fixes with creator tooling. 3.5.3 removes the Skills and Community sections from the new dashboard's Progress tab, fixes Arabic text in MathJax equations and duplicate feedback on questions, and moves contributor-dashboard skill search to the backend. Earlier in the 3.5 line, study guides replaced revision cards.
◆Where it's heading
The redesigned learner experience is being simplified after launch rather than expanded, while right-to-left and translation work continues for international learners. Releases are slowing, with two months between 3.5.2 and 3.5.3.
◆Prediction
The next version is likely another fix-heavy release; the certificate dashboard scaffold from 3.5.2 is the visible candidate for a feature follow-up.

    Oppia 3.5.3: dashboard trim and learner fixes

    3.5.3 is a fix release: Arabic text in MathJax, duplicate question feedback, a missing Continue button, plus a trim of the new dashboard's Progress tab. The one structural change is backend-driven skill search for contributors.

    Oppia 3.5.2: topic header redesign, certificate dashboard scaffold

    Version 3.5.2 combines learner fixes (fraction rendering, story-progress auth) with visible work: a redesigned topic header layout and a certificate assessment dashboard skeleton. Incremental, but the certificate scaffold hints at a new surface taking shape.

    Oppia 3.5.1: skill-search fix, broken-image alerts

    Version 3.5.1 fixes a skill-search filtering bug and adds real-time alerts for misspelled SVG tags so creators don't upload broken images. Small but genuine quality-of-life gains for creators.

    Oppia 3.5.0: study guides replace revision cards

    Version 3.5.0 flips study guides to production — replacing revision cards with sectioned learning material — and gates the unfinished review-tests feature. The study-guide launch is the substantive move in this window.
