If you want to use a full-fledged flowchart diagramming tool that uses this library - checkout https://excalidraw.com/


I misread and thought this worked in the other direction. I’m used to working on a real whiteboard and I’m still to find a flow that works for me while nutting out architecture ideas with the team remotely. The best I’ve found so far is to scratch a little in Figma and then rework into real objects as we go. Anyone else have other tools for this?


Terrastruct (https://terrastruct.com) supports this too (diagramming tool specifically for software architecture)

Example: https://app.terrastruct.com/diagrams/1914249269


Unfortunately the choice of font in the example you posted makes the diagram harder to read than it needs to be. Legibility has been sacrificed to achieve the hand-written look (a font that's less cursive in style might have been okay). Not a good trade-off IMO.

Other than that I like how it looks.


Doesn't seem to work on my iPad


What’s the symptom? It should work
