Excalidraw, my favorite whiteboard / tech diagram app

am I in 2022?

Thank you Christian for this presentation. Very nice tool.

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

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

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

Would be nice if they have diagram as code

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

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?

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

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

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

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

yes, i love it too!

Were you paid for this promotion?

Great. Thanks

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

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.

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.

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