Linear Canvas

About

Tired of Canvas LMS's clunky, dated interface slowing you down? Linear Canvas is your free UX upgrade toolkit, bringing a cleaner, faster, and more enjoyable experience to every page. As an independent extension (not affiliated with Instructure), it overlays a modern UI framework, flexible theming, and smart helpers on top of Canvas—without accessing or altering your data. Think of it as a polished shell that keeps your classes, assignments, and files intact while making the platform feel fresh and intuitive.

* Sleek, Modern Layouts: Dashboard-first home view with quick access to courses and assignments, persistent action bars, and a responsive shadcn-based design that reduces clutter and speeds up navigation.
* Live Theme Builder: Easily preview and customize themes (including dark mode options), tweak colors with swatches, integrate Google Fonts, and apply styles—no CSS coding required.
* Custom Productivity Pages: Hand-crafted views for Home, Assignments, and Notifications with instant loading, keyboard shortcuts, and seamless integration.
