Terminal
$I'm new to this codebase. Can you explain it to me?
⏺I'll analyze the Excalidraw codebase structure and provide a high-level overview.
⏺Analyze(what: "Excalidraw codebase structure and provide a high-level overview of what it is, its main components, and how they're organized. Focus on understanding the project's purpose, architecture, and key features.")

Excalidraw is an open-source virtual whiteboard application with a hand-drawn style. It's designed for creating diagrams, wireframes, and collaborative drawings.

## Purpose
• Web-based drawing tool with infinite canvas
• Hand-drawn aesthetic with support for shapes, arrows, text
• End-to-end encrypted collaboration
• Works offline as a PWA (Progressive Web App)
## Architecture
The project is organized as a monorepo with these main components:
1. Core Package (packages/excalidraw)
• React component library for embedding Excalidraw in any application
• Handles drawing, rendering, and core functionality
• Uses roughjs for the hand-drawn style
• Includes export capabilities (PNG, SVG)
2. Web Application (excalidraw-app/)
• Full-featured web app at excalidraw.com
• Built on top of the core package
• Adds collaboration features, local storage, sharing
3. Support Packages
• common - Shared utilities and constants
• element - Element manipulation and type definitions
• math - Mathematical functions for drawing
• utils - General utility functions
4. Examples
• Integration examples (Next.js, browser script)
• Shows how to embed Excalidraw in different environments
5. Documentation (dev-docs/)
• API documentation
• Integration guides
• Component documentation
## Key Features
• Real-time collaboration with end-to-end encryption
• Export to various formats (PNG, SVG, JSON)
• Customizable drawing tools
• Dark mode support
• Localization
• Library of shapes and components
• Arrow bindings and labels
• Image support
## Technology Stack
• React for UI
• TypeScript for type safety
• Firebase for collaboration backend
• Jotai for state management
• Vite for development and building
• IndexedDB/LocalStorage for offline storage
The architecture allows for both using Excalidraw as a component in other applications and as a standalone web application with additional features.
