I built BoardEject: an open-source Apple Freeform Excalidraw converter

Описание и применение

BoardEject позволяет экспортировать диаграммы из Apple Freeform в формат Excalidraw, сохраняя элементы и не загружая данные на сервер.

Задача

Apple Freeform only exports flattened PDFs, lacking editable content for further manipulation.

Результат

BoardEject enables local, open-source conversion of Freeform boards to editable Excalidraw files, preserving key elements and avoiding server uploads.

Рабочий процесс

• Open Apple Freeform board
• Run BoardEject tool
• Convert to .excalidraw format
• Open .excalidraw file in Excalidraw
• Edit and collaborate

Доказательства

BoardEject preserves things like shapes, text, connectors, groups, drawings, tables, images

Источник

It’s local-first, open source, and the board content isn’t uploaded to a server.
