In addition to starter kits, this release completes the months-long effort to make the tldraw SDK compliant with WCAG 2.2 AA. Paperwork coming soon.

In practice, this means better keyboard controls, a clearer, more customizable UI, and accessibility improvements for all of our users and customers.

We've also updated our licensing model for the tldraw SDK. From 4.0 forward, the SDK will require a license key to work in production. You can grab a free 100-day trial license at tldraw.dev/pricing. Non-commercial projects may apply for a hobby license for unrestricted use.

5. The branching chat starter kit features a threaded AI chat where the user can branch off from the conversation in multiple directions.

We built this on top of our workflow starter kit in an afternoon!

4. The chat starter kit puts an inline canvas into a chat application so users can draw, add markup and include additional context to regular chat messages. Every AI chatbot should have this. Show your boss. Tag @cursor_ai and tell them to put the canvas in the chat ffs. Ask for tldraw by name.

okay, vague idea: integrating LLMs + block based programming overcomes the biggest limitation of block editors (looping control flow etc.)

internally, generate python jupyter-like snippets, but user should only ever see outputs. Draw edges to describe dataflow

(demo whipped up using @tldraw.com)

TIL you can simply drag or copy/paste an SVG file into @tldraw.com and it'll directly render it.

And you can export / download the original file.
That's probably the world's fastest way to share assets with others...

Screenshot of the tldraw.com UI. A SVG is selected. A context menu offers to download the original file.
