LiveArt HTML5 v1.0.0 supports the same configuration files as LiveArt v0.10.* branch, published and available on liveart.github.io/slate/

Please note the following differences between the versions.

General:

1. The designs, saved under 0.10.* version of the designer, are no longer compatible with 1.0.0. Any templates and designs have to be recreated respectively.
2. 1.0.0 version uses Cufon fonts only, thus requiring Cufon font preparation.
3. The colorizable producs and gallery artwork, prepared for 0.10.* version may not be compatible with 1.0.0 (see migration guide below).
4. By default, we deprecated adding a stroke to one-color images.
5. Canvas size changed from 587×543px to 590×530px.
6. By default, the canvas is responsive.
7.
