Excalidraw ​

Create and insert Excalidraw drawings.

Setup ​

Start with the packages in Getting Started. The complete example below registers the feature and renders its UI — pick the React or the Vue tab. In an existing editor, merge the imports and extension entries into your setup, and place the controls inside your existing RichTextProvider.

tsx
'use client';

import { EditorContent, useEditor } from '@tiptap/react';
import { Document } from '@tiptap/extension-document';
import { Paragraph } from '@tiptap/extension-paragraph';
import { Text } from '@tiptap/extension-text';
import {
  RichTextProvider,
  Excalidraw,
  RichTextExcalidraw,
  RichTextBubbleExcalidraw,
} from 'ai-sparkwrite-editor';
import 'ai-sparkwrite-editor/style.css';
import '@excalidraw/excalidraw/index.css';

const extensions = [Document, Paragraph, Text, Excalidraw];

export default function ExcalidrawExample() {
  const editor = useEditor({
    extensions,
    content: '<p>Try this feature here.</p>',
    immediatelyRender: false,
  });

  if (!editor) return null;

  return (
    <RichTextProvider editor={editor}>
      <RichTextExcalidraw />
      <RichTextBubbleExcalidraw />
      <EditorContent editor={editor} />
    </RichTextProvider>
  );
}

React only

This feature's interactive UI depends on React libraries; the Vue layer does not include it yet. See Frameworks for what the Vue entry covers.

How to use ​

Load @excalidraw/excalidraw/index.css alongside the editor stylesheet. Open the toolbar dialog, create a drawing, and apply it. Mount RichTextBubbleExcalidraw for contextual actions. Install @excalidraw/excalidraw directly if needed to resolve its CSS import.
