About this app
A collaborative whiteboard that lives entirely in your Matrix room. Draw together in real time — shapes, sticky notes, text, freehand pen, images — with every collaborator's cursor visible live, and all board content stored as events in the room itself, end-to-end encrypted in encrypted rooms.
Boards are organised into slides (or an infinite canvas with frames), so a
single NeoBoard can hold a kanban board, a mindmap, a SWOT analysis, or a
presentation. A presentation mode walks participants through the slides
together, and boards can be exported and re-imported as .nwb files.
Real-time collaboration (live cursors and instant updates) runs over WebRTC connections between participants, brokered through the room and your homeserver's TURN servers — no NeoBoard server involved. Persistent board state is periodically snapshotted into hidden room events; on homeservers with strict rate limits, large boards benefit from the rate-limiting tweaks described in the NeoBoard documentation.

What's new in 2.4.0
Added: elements can now be attached to and detached from frames — resizing or moving a frame takes its attached elements along. Slide content can be imported into frames on the infinite canvas. Improved: smoother zooming and panning with touchpad and mouse wheel. Fixed: panning no longer selects elements, stray context menus over the element menu, and a MatrixRTC connection issue in presentation mode. Security: dependency updates fixing several CVEs.
