// EDITOR'S TAKE
Tldraw is the closest to Miro's infinite multiplayer canvas and the right base if you want a whiteboard embedded in your own product. Excalidraw is more polished for quick sketching and diagrams but deliberately narrow in scope, Affine bundles boards with documents and tasks in one workspace, and Penpot is a design and prototyping tool rather than a workshop canvas.
