Review Excalidraw?

Reviewers mostly praise Excalidraw for being simple, fast, and easy to learn, with a clean, distraction-free interface that helps people focus on ideas, diagrams, wireframes, user flows, and interview prep. Shortcuts and hotkeys come up repeatedly as a standout advantage over alternatives, and users also like features such as libraries, dark mode, broad device support, and end-to-end encryption. A few rough edges appear: one user was frustrated that live collaboration work was not saved automatically, and others want additions like tables or standard icons.

I love wireframing with this tool, but I recently had a really bad experience. I didn’t realize that anything I created in live collaboration mode wouldn’t be saved — I had to manually save it. I’m not used to that kind of setup, since I come from Figma/FigJam where live collaboration is already a built-in feature.

honestly, the shortcuts seem such a minor addition but they are simplifying things so much.
the app is miles ahead of its alternatives for me, no wonder everyone i know uses it for interviews

Perfect for creating diagrams, user flows, charts and using it as a whiteboard, works perfectly on tabs and desktops as well. Loved its dark mode and library is another great addition. Free version is just fine but I'd recommend going to Upgraded version, worth paying
