Excalidraw 2.24.0-beta-1 is available for testing
As discussed in my earlier post, I am splitting Excalidraw into two plugins:
The first beta implementing this change is now available: 2.24.0-beta-1.
I’d greatly appreciate your help testing the full user experience. In particular:
- Uninstall Excalidraw Extras if you already have it installed.
- Try one of the outsourced features:
- LaTeX (MathJax)
- Mermaid
- PDF printing
- Direct file system access
- Verify that the installation prompt appears at the right time and that the installation flow feels smooth and intuitive.
- After installation, experiment with different combinations of:
- Enabling/disabling Excalidraw Extras
- Enabling/disabling outsourced features
- Restarting Obsidian
My main concern is not whether the features work (though that’s important too), but whether the overall experience is clear, predictable, and intuitive for users who encounter this for the first time.
Please share any rough edges, confusing moments, or suggestions for improvement.
