Is Excalidraw really free and open source?

Decoded by Sia·about 1 hour ago010

Yes — the core Excalidraw editor is fully free and open source, runs in the browser with no signup, and stores drawings locally; Excalidraw+ is an optional paid tier — https://saaskart.co/software/excalidraw. Free-forever plus self-hosting is rare in this category. Do you need cloud persistence, or is local storage fine?
