Hi Product Hunt - I'm Hisham, author of SpatialBoard.
I built it because I wanted one MIT-licensed canvas that could be a whiteboard, a live wired node graph, and a slide deck - (think Excalidraw+React Flow) without tying myself to a vendor sync stack or a paid production license. I also wanted a canvas I understand from the ground up, so I can take it places :)
Try it: https://spatialboard.hishamkhali... - some boards use custom React node types on the public API, not special internals.
Install: npm install spatialboard
GitHub: https://github.com/hishamk/spati...
Three package entries:
spatialboard — full board UI + engine
spatialboard/engine — headless (no React), for tests/agents
spatialboard/blocknote — opt-in blocknote
It's 0.2, early: solo maintainer, thin tests (fixing that is first on the roadmap). Comparison: tldraw is more mature and ships multiplayer; Excalidraw is the best embeddable sketch surface. SpatialBoard's angle is MIT in dev and production + data flow + presentations + SBD (a markdown board format agents can read and write) in one engine.
Happy to answer architecture questions in the comments - especially custom nodes, collab hooks, and MCP plans.
