    Virtual whiteboard for sketching hand-drawn like diagrams

  • Hello HN, here's an open source app I've been working on for the past few weeks.

    I love Excalidraw[1], the virtual whiteboard (discussed recently here on HN[2]). Its UX is great - simple and intuitive - and really makes it easy for me to express my thoughts and explain complex concepts with a quick sketch. I want to use it to make slides!

    However Excalidraw is not specifically designed for that. I used it for that many times actually, but the workflow is quite cumbersome: drawing a same-sized perimeter for each slide, adding to each slide watermarks and other common elements, exporting each slide as PNG into a powerpoint... it takes a long time!

    So well, here's Excalideck to simplify that workflow. :)

    It's still in early development, so it's not very polished. But you're welcome to give it a try, make some slides, and let me know how it goes!
