Eraser 2.0

The whiteboard for engineering teamsHey Product Hunt 👋

I'm Shin Kim, Founder of Eraser. Since launching on Product Hunt almost a year ago, we've been hard at work to create the perfect whiteboard for engineering teams and I'm excited to be back with a v2 launch.

How are we different from other diagramming tools or sticky-centric whiteboards?

Eraser is built for engineers. Technical whiteboarding requires a particular set of primitives. That's why Eraser replaces sticky notes with markdown support, code blocks, cloud icons, and code-generated-diagrams (aka diagram-as-code).

Eraser is built for speed. In real-time conversations, one less click and keystroke makes the difference between a fluid conversation and a clunky one. That's why we have a keyboard-first approach to diagramming and a clean, minimal UI. In Eraser you can drawn an entire diagram without your hands leaving the keyboard, and when you need a tool, it's easy to find.

Eraser can create visual docs. Too often, diagrams are drawn in some diagram tool and pasted into a doc editor. Updating content requires straddling two different tools. Eraser has a built-in note editor so you can write and draw in one tool. This makes it the ideal repository for your team's visual docs – technical design docs, architecture documentation, and system design interview artifacts.
