Excalidraw

Introduction

Taking into account today’s class (2024-09-03) PROGRAMMING FUNDAMENTALS: Integrative Activity I, which recommends the use of graphical tools for communication and planning the algorithms we are going to create, I have brought you some resources to learn how to manage Excalidraw.

Documentation

The first (though not always) source for learning how to use any tool is the official documentation on its website—usually the Get Started section, but in this case, it is called How to start.

Videos

In any case, I am sharing a video by Fazt here, where he explains how he uses this tool:

Excalidraw, My Tool for Quick Sketches and Designs

A Little More

For those who want to set up their own local Excalidraw service, here is a video by Peladonerd where he makes the setup easier using Docker; he also shared his Docker Compose file:

Excalidraw - FREE, OPEN, and without the need for INTERNET.
