I like the simplicity very much! It can be already useful. One thing is missing though; showing the zoom level. It is very necessary when more than 6 people try to write lots of things.

Nice! I enjoyed using this in me old brick (iPhone 6). Makes we want to have a stylus.

This has almost no features. And I love that about it. Very responsive as well when testing from different tabs

Any pointers on locally hosted Whiteboard application? In our company we cannot use Whiteboards on cloud.

I love that this exist, but the core problem with remote whiteboards is that everyone can write something legible when using a marker on a whiteboard, but it's way harder with a mouse/trackpad.

It would be nice to have some features that made it easier - the features I really miss from apps I use to create diagrams are basic shapes like rectangles and the ability to select and move/resize/copy existing drawing.

Witeboard is great name BTW.

You could try spinning up https://github.com/precursorapp/precursor

The cloud version is running at https://precursorapp.com

This is how an webapp should be. No fuss, directly to the point!

I generally tend to agree. But drawing on that thing from my tablet is pretty darn awesome, it is not that far from the real thing
