Is there any API or method for pressure sensitive pens/tablets to work on the web? Or any native apps that support pressure and work with online apps?
I love my Wacom and I love collaborative whiteboards, but it feels like neither is at its full potential.
- freedomben 6y agoHopefully a better answer than mine comes along, but until then I tried several different options with my wacom and Miro was the best (far from perfect tho). I'm a wacom n00b and am still learning how to finely tune pressure sensitivity for myself, but for collaboration I liked Miro. It's free for small use and works well across mobile and web. No affiliation with Miro, just liked the service.

They are pretty easy to use, but most online whiteboards don't bother. Perhaps the developers don't have suitable hardware? The only pressure sensitive one I've seen is https://github.com/melvinroest/doodledocs https://github.com/melvinroest/doodledocs, which is ... not very polished yet.
