Anyone who tried it, how does it compare to Excalidraw?

  They seem to be clones of each other. Not sure which came first.

    I heard of Excalidraw first. And a quick browse of GitHub leads to me believe that Excalidraw was first. I've only used Excalidraw, and it's my go-to. But I follow Steve on Twitter as it's fun to see what's he is excited about.

      I actually contributed to Excalidraw, it’s a great project! They also use my ink (MIT licensed perfect-freehand library) for their pen tool. While tldraw mostly grew out of another project of mine (globs.design), I took a lot of inspiration from Excalidraw’s feature set. We’ve since caught up with eachother on a bunch of features (sticky notes, labels) and hopefully will continue to trade tips and features as separate open source projects.

  Excalidraw is one of my favorite tools, and for diagramming it's much better. I'm also a happy subscriber to their private collaborative workspaces features. With that said, I look forward to tldraw's library getting open sourced, and discovering what's possible to build with it.
