Features

Dark Mode!
Load pages without refreshing! When you navigate OWL, it will be much faster because a full refresh is not done every time you go to a new page. (This feature is disabled on Gradebook, Test/Quizzes, and Forum)
Edit course names! Especially useful when you're just starting a new semester, and you're not used to the course codes yet.
New resources page! Falcon includes a brand new resources page for browsing your courses' files. It is extremely fast. You can search for any files/folders instantly, too!
