Eng Board

A whiteboard inspired by the ease of use of pen and paper. This is a personal project that started as a replacement for scratch paper while tutoring. However, it is a great tool for making quick notes, sketching out ideas and any basic, free-form (temporary) drawing.

The drawing feature of Eng Board is intend to be used with a tablet such as:

Almost any device with a browser should be able to view realtime drawings in public rooms.

Features

Desktop

Most devices with a mouse or Wacom tablet should work without issue. Firefox and Chromium based browsers have been tested on Windows and Linux.

Mobile (touch devices)

NOTE: Touch drawing is disabled by design. Mobile devices without a pen or mouse cannot draw.

Mobile devices are great for viewing drawings that others are making. They can also manipulate the drawing history with undo/redo, as well as clear the screen.

iPad with Apple Pencil

NOTE: The Magic Eraser is not working currently. The issue will be worked on soon.

Drawing with the Surface Pen is seamless and intuitive.

Surface Pro with Surface Pen

NOTE: Recent changes have affected Surface Pen compatability. The issue will be worked on soon.

When enabled and working, drawing with the Surface Pen is seamless and intuitive.
