Reactboard – an experiment with Reactjs

Microsoft Whiteboard is a real-time collaborative, free-form canvas that I helped create.  For more information on Whiteboard as a whole, as well as other major aspects that I designed, see my Whiteboard overview page.

Reactboard was a 2019 Microsoft Hackathon project.  2 service engineers, another designer, an intern, and I set out to see how much of Whiteboard we could re-create using Reactjs and other Microsoft components.  I use Reactjs a ton in my side project so I was excited to use what I’d learned outside of work in a Microsoft context.  This was a huge prototyping project that was a great success.  See the video for more details.
