Excalidraw, my favorite whiteboard / tech diagram app

do you have some repositories of those icons and images that we can use?

you should try obsidian with evcalidraw plugin! it has more customization, fonts, scripts, can save files locally, have markers, double outline pen, and doesn't lag like obsidian in firefov.

I learned about Excalidraw and Asciiflow from you and haven't stopped using it since. These tools are simple but as effective 🎉 BTW your diagrams are very interesting and packed with information.

When I installed it with proxmox helper scripts, I got awful performance

Great. Thanks

Were you paid for this promotion?

yes, i love it too!

Cool presentation, but your sponsor Ankiflow is quite expensive, do you have a discount code ?

i’ll wait until it can be self hosted. are templates available that can be downloaded for lazy people? 😅

I found the libraries quite useful and good. I imported drwnio, aws-architecture-icons, and dev_ops. Worked great.

Excalidraw is amazing! Really helps seeing the idea and helps flesh it out.

Thanks a lot, I would appreciate just a couple more built in shapes, like a callout, … but so far i like rely using it

Excalidraw+ self hosted is on the roadmap?? I already self host regular excalidraw. Is the main difference currently things like the AI and collaboration functions?

The Issue about Excalidraw is that you cant work with multiple people on the same drawing...

Would be nice if they have diagram as code

I love excalidraw! Can we get a self hosting guide? I know there’s a couple of docker containers, with/without support for collaboration

Very decent service but overpriced! They better introduce a pay-as-you-go model.

Yes! I was just looking for a whiteboard app the other day that doesn't require a Microsoft login.

Thank you Christian for this presentation. Very nice tool.

am I in 2022?
