Super intuitive open source whiteboard tool, perfect for online collaboration.
Simple and limited thus preferable to the pretentious and unstable Draw.io / Diagrams.net + excalidraw specific things can be included in an exported svg image like sktech-that-I-will-work-on-later.excalidraw.svg
I feel like I am in a new friend's home when I interact with an app that offers its services at no cost, invites you to familiarize yourself with the features, and helps you discover why you always needed it. THANKS Excalidraw, for not intimidating this software exploring newbie.
Really great whiteboard collaboration tool, clean design, and straightforward! The no-registration-required feature is an amazing plus.
Easy to use, No registration required, Collaborative feature, opensource, self-hosting, pretty interface, convenient export option
The design and style is quite original, good-looking. Makes me want to use it.
The easyiest way to sketch ideas. Very intuitive... You can focus what you do!
