floatcam: a floating camera for any screen recorder
2 projects | /r/electronjs | 15 Nov 2022

Check out my first electron app, floatcam. It is a simple camera app that can be used alongside any screen recorder. It floats on top of other apps, so you can easily record your screen and your face at the same time.

For anyone who is willing to use a webapp, I like drawio[0]. You can download locally[1] and self host (I just use the python webserver).
While finding the Github, I see they now actually package an Electron application, so that is probably worth exploring[2].

You can also get it for desktop. It's the same web app but I like to have it installed.
Open-source drawing tool – Excalidraw
4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 2 Dec 2023

I like excalidraw for live discussions but if I want to make more detailed or better looking diagrams, I really enjoy these two tools:
- For drag-and-drop/WYSIWYG, I really like DrawIO. They have a web version https://app.diagrams.net/ but I strongly recommend the desktop version https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases/
- For text-as-diagram, I think Mermaid wins this by default since GitHub added markdown support for these: https://mermaid.live/ (This was github's announcement https://github.blog/2022-02-14-include-diagrams-markdown-fil... )

Protip: get draw.io if you want to edit that file. Or just use the online https://www.drawio.com/ (previously diagram.net?)

The struggle is real. What free software exists for control circuit diagrams?
2 projects | /r/AskElectronics | 1 May 2023

Perhaps diagrams.net (click 'more shapes' to add the electrical symbols). There is also yEd. It has logic gates, but I don't know if it has electrical components. Of course KiCAD is specifically designed for circuits, but that might not fit your application.
