I'm not sure who you are referring to with your condescending commentary. Easy-to-deploy high-level-of-abstraction application hosting services offering a free tier (like Heroku for the last 10 years) is a great thing to have IMO. The

Blog post author here. You're right that there's a lot of alternatives and that's great! In the post we listed a few options that we have personally tried and can recommend. I'm also considering setting up some Github pa

Not sure what sort of UI are you looking for, but I'm quite happy with their dashboard UI including monitoring, logs, metrics, status etc. You use the CLI for deploying your apps but that is hardly a downside in my books, as this is a

Yeah it’s mobile-dead, works on desktop.

Why would that be unfortunate, it sounds awesome! Gotta give it a try.

Thanks! May I ask you to open a Github issue on this, and I’m sure we can get u up an running. HN isn’t a great support forum :)

Images can be drag/dropped or copy pasted onto the board. Freeform drawing is not supported.

Yes. The shared global board definitely has to go. Should have known not to trust people to behave…

Here's an Ourboard board that demonstrates the key features of the service. https://www.ourboard.io/b/0b5a9bd8-93ae-446c-afbd-80ebfcb1e0... It's read-only, but you can select all (Cmd-A), create a new board a

Heroku killed the app but it was fortunately span back up quickly. Apparently 512MB memory on a single Heroku dyno is not Hacker News scale. The application does have a horizontally scalable architecture for sharding boards on multiple host

Okay this is good info, thanks! Created an Issue here: https://github.com/raimohanska/ourboard/issues/160 It's a single-page app so to support in-app navigation (back button etc) it needs to interact wit

That's a good point. It's definitely not a drawing tool. More of an electronic version of post-it notes and images on a whiteboard. You can "draw" diagrams using shapes and arrows and text, but not freeform. I personally

Sorry for that! Could you elaborate on the scenario and your setup so we can see what can be done?

by nullzzz 5y ago
Looks cool! Like the super plain appearance and simplicity. Would suit to screencasts and quick diagrams, while OurBoard is more of a collaboration tool, I’d say.

by nullzzz 5y ago
Yep, that’s missing and would make sense. It’s an open source hobby project so it’s bound to have some rough corners :)

Oof. Would check logs if not at the gym atm IRLOL

Especially the home page is a total disaster :( The actual board view is read-only usable. This is definitely a fixer. Wanna contribute? :)

Thanks for the input, that’s highly appreciated! Let’s see about this soonish. You can also use Github issues at https://github.com/raimohanska/ourboard/issues

No pen tool sorry! Change log is not fully functional. Whiteboarding maybe a bit misleading here. Let’s call it a sticky note wall, with images and connectors?

by nullzzz 5y ago
No roadmap / plans. Contributions welcome. You can also self-host this one very easily btw.

Quick overview: - notes, areas for organizing, a few shapes and colors, connectors - images and videos dragn drop / copypaste - more on github readme - not very active development lately. Just today I improved on the front page feature

It’s not mobile friendly at all though

This is my open-source project. I use it almost daily for simple whiteboarding, notetaking, online whiteboard sessions. The idea is to have a simple and highly usable, fast alternative to more complex software such as Miro or Mural.
