This looks great! The stroke smoothing seems really aggressive though. It's hard to write as neatly as I can in other apps.

How tied to React is this? Could it be used without it, or adapted to that?

Right on, I'm hoping to put in some more options for the freehand drawing tool. That part of the app is using my other project, perfect-freehand (https://perfect-freehand-example.vercel.app/), which supports a ton of options. It'd just be a matter of exposing those through the UI.

At the moment it's pretty tied to React, however the "app" itself—the big state machine that responds to events—is independent. It would take some effort to make it work with other libraries but it could be done.
