| Excalidraw has proliferated quite widely in my company since we got Claude Code. Its a shame the default font is ugly, childish and inaccessible. |

| I love excalidraw, but I have to agree. It also looks very unprofessional so if you ever have to write customer-facing diagrams, you have tool fragmentation. I just stick to draw.io now (aka diagrams.net) |

| ▲ | ChadNauseam 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | Why does it cause tool fragmentation? You can change the font to a normal sans-serif font or to a monospaced font. Personally I like the default font. It looks weird to have my crappy doodles next to a normal computer font. The default one is very legible but has a style (and ligatures) that make it feel not too neat |

| Whiteboard handwriting is childish? |

| ▲ | walthamstow 11 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | It's not on a whiteboard, nor was it written by hand. It's a computer font. | | |
| ▲ | lloydatkinson 11 hours ago | parent [-] | | The Excalidraw website describes itself as: Excalidraw is a virtual collaborative whiteboard tool that lets you easily sketch diagrams that have a hand-drawn feel to them. And the GitHub repo says: An open source virtual hand-drawn style whiteboard.
Collaborative and end-to-end encrypted. It's the intended design... | | |
