Would be nice if this website also tracked software projects for building infinite canvases in your own apps. Especially for collaborative online canvases there's not that many (F)OSS projects around. All the nice, well-designed products are proprietary SaaS'es.
- hobofan 4y agoYes, please! Trying to replicate the navigational behavior of those apps, isn't as straightforward as one would hope, and having some good open source references would help out a lot. E.g. lot of canvas/whiteboard "competitors" use drag-to-pan with a trackpad, which if you've ever used Miro/Figma/etc. feels very outdated compared to the two-finger pan that they use. We've tried to replicate similar behavior for our app and had to try and reverse-engineer it from multiple of those apps, as almost every out of the box OSS implemenation of canvas navigation only implements drag-to-pan.
