ExcaStoneBoard

An unofficial multi-board manager for Excalidraw - manage multiple drawing boards without losing access to old ones.

Features

• Multiple Boards: Create, rename, duplicate, and delete drawing boards
• Auto-Save: Your drawings are automatically saved locally
• Cross-Platform: Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux

Prerequisites

Before building, ensure you have the following installed:

Windows

1. Rust: Install from rustup.rs
2. Node.js: Version 24+ from nodejs.org
3. Visual Studio Build Tools: Install "Desktop development with C++" workload from Visual Studio Installer

Quick Start

The project includes helper scripts that set up the Visual Studio environment automatically:

# Install dependencies first
npm install

# Run in development mode
npm run tauri tauri

Building

# Build for production
npm run tauri build

# Build MSIX
pnpm run tauri:windows:build --arch "x64,arm64" --runner pnpm

How It Works

Board Management: The app stores board metadata and data in your system's app data directory
