A whiteboard that works the moment you open the page — for explaining homework, sketching ideas in meetings, brainstorming or teaching over a shared screen. The canvas is practically infinite: scroll to pan, Ctrl/⌘ + scroll or pinch to zoom, and hold Space to drag. The pen responds to stylus pressure and, with a mouse or finger, simulates it from drawing speed, with smoothing for clean lines; the highlighter is translucent so text stays readable, and the eraser removes whole strokes. Add rectangles, ellipses, lines and arrows (hold Shift for squares, circles and 45° angles), text, and sticky notes that wrap automatically. The Select tool lets you click or box-select, drag, recolor, resize strokes and delete, and everything can be undone and redone. Create multiple pages and choose a grid, dot or plain background. Everything is vector, so PNG and SVG exports stay crisp, and you can save a JSON file to keep editing later. The board autosaves in your browser and is never uploaded.

## How to use

1. Pick the pen, a shape, text or a sticky note, choose a color and size, and draw on the canvas
2. Use Select to move, recolor or delete; scroll to pan, Ctrl + scroll to zoom, and add pages as needed
3. Export PNG or SVG, or save JSON to continue editing later

## FAQ

### Can several people draw on it together in real time?

No. The whiteboard runs entirely in your browser without a server, so there is no real-time collaboration. To share, present your screen, export a PNG or SVG, or save a JSON file and send it — the other person can use Open JSON to continue editing.

### Does the pen support stylus pressure?

Yes. With an Apple Pencil, Surface Pen, drawing tablet or any device that reports pressure, stroke width follows how hard you press. A mouse or finger has no pressure data, so the tool simulates it from speed — slower strokes are thicker and faster ones thinner — and smooths the line.

### Why does the eraser remove the whole line?

It’s a stroke eraser: touching a stroke or shape deletes the whole object. That’s quicker than pixel erasing for fixing sketches and keeps exported vector files clean. If you erase the wrong thing, press Ctrl + Z (⌘ + Z on a Mac). To delete many objects at once, box-select them with the Select tool and press Delete.

### Where is my board saved, and how sharp are the exports?

The board autosaves in your browser’s local storage, so it survives refreshes — but clearing browser data removes it, so use Save JSON for anything important. All strokes and shapes are vectors: SVG exports scale infinitely and PNG exports are rendered at 2× resolution, cropped to your content with a margin.
