No offense, but this tool seems pretty raw. Why announce it now?

#63WOW impressed with the shortcuts. Within a second of loading, I started using all the typical adobe shortcuts, and they even got a shift+? for the shortcut menu.
That alone is pretty impressive and shows that these guys know who they are building for. Well done!
* I know this is a tall order, but even adding some of the more technically difficult but basic functions like colors, shapes, borders, radiuses, gradients, etc would be incredible. Could you make a browser version of Sketch?
* * Slack needs to buy this app, now.
Re: Show HN: Mockups fixed by making collaboration effortless, built with React
#64I'm trying to figure out the audience. I've never had to collaborate on a mockup. I make mockups. I review mockups. I mark mockups up. But I've never wanted to do one live with someone else. That's just me though so an example of when this is used would be great. Some feedback: I use Balsamiq and have for years. The whole reason I use a mockup tool in the first place is so I don't have to draw everything by hand or m…
"Mockups" isn't really the right term here as far as I'm concerned – it implies high fidelity, whereas this is a tool for rapid, low-fidelity idea sketching. It looks like an excellent wireframing tool, not a mockup tool.

#65What's really great about this is that it is a prototyping tool that enforces low fidelity. Not having multiple colors, not getting to choose fonts is actually a major feature, because it requires all collaborators to focus on the layout and functionality before getting into the weeds.

#66Earlier quoted context omitted.
Would something like this work? ontouchstart: scrollMultiplier = 10; ontouchend: if(evt.touches.length === 1) scrollMultiplier = 1;
I would have thought it would be a touch event, but it's actually a normal scroll event. The only difference I can see is that it has the ctrl bit flipped. Here's the stackoverflow answer: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15416851/catching-mac-tra...
I understand that, but do any of the touch events fire in parallel? Like, just before the pinch happens, is there not a touch start even for when the fingers touch the screen? The idea is to change the rate of the normal scroll event only if there are fingers on the screen.

Perceived quality issues aside, Precursor appears to be free for public projects. The site you linked contains the following text:
"The Free Plan includes 2 projects (limited to 300 objects) and 5MB of storage to get you started."

#68I like it a lot but it's unusable for me as I need to make things that are longer than the screen (often much longer), yet this forces me to work within size of the screen.

You should be able to make things as large as you like--the canvas is infinite.
To pan, you can scroll or hold space and drag.
To zoom, hold alt and scroll.

Yup, that's why Balsamiq is particularly good for this kind of work.
