Excalidraw as a Tool for unlocking your diagram creation process

Working as a developer and SRE, something that we constantly need to do is share application architecture and infrastructure definitions as visual diagrams.

Several tools try to solve that problem like the great Draw.io and the Lucidchart, but that tools come with an overhead cost of deciding too much about icons and adjusting the blocks that can leave you locked and take longer to get ready.

Excalidraw is a more simple and extremely effective tool that gives us basic and well-formatted blocks to build.

Avoid these decisions and leave us to play and sketch our ideas and workflows with freedom.
