Do also check out the other cool roughjs creations (https://github.com/rough-stuff), such as annotations (rough-notation: https://github.com/rough-stuff/rough-notation) and html elements (wired-elements: https://github.com/rough-stuff/wired-elements).

Shameless plug: I also created a dataviz library that uses roughjs under-the-hood: https://github.com/jwilber/roughViz

Fantastic library. I used it to create beautiful hand-drawn style interactive timelines. See https://www.chronoflotimeline.com/blog/entry/hand-drawn-time...

If you didn't already notice, this is what Excalidraw uses to get its distinct style

The official github repo: https://github.com/rough-stuff/rough

so that we can track all mentioned libs here https://www.libhunt.com/posts/523016-rough-js-create-graphic...

That site annoys me! I can find my library on it if I type its name (Scrawl-canvas) in the search bar, but it never appears when searching by tag (eg: 'canvas') and there's no obvious thing I can change in the edit panel to make it appear in the places I want it to appear.

This looks like a wonderful library! I'm wondering how a handwritten font could fit into this api, a font like in https://github.com/timqian/chart.xkcd

Slightly related tip, if you paste CSV data into Excalidraw it'll plot a hand drawn chart for you.

I really like this, since I find this useful for drawing cool graphs with nodes and edges. Thank you for sharing!

Wow! This is what I was looking for a week ago. Thank you!

Would be nice if it didn’t need JavaScript code.

Are there any no-code or Python tools to do the same?

Cool, but conditioning an "art style" will make the web even duller (a la Bootstrap). We should simply create a framework for people to upload and program their own sketchy art, not just serving someone's else.

Yes. No-one should make cool, novel opinionated graphics libraries or else we will succumb to a monoculture. Lol

Uhm, don't take it that personal, I'm not saying it is wrong, I'm just saying people should not rely 100% on this. People should find their own style. Sorry for having a different opinion, I guess...

Starting a reply with "Cool, but..." immediately comes across as very insincere. Your sarcastic "Sorry I guess..." at the end seals it. The reason you're being downvoted is because your soft skills kernel needs a big software patch.

Don't take it personal, friend. I still think this ruins real style in the web.

Could just stop there. It's not like we could ever have too much cowbell.

This assumes that any given styled library will become the dominant standard.

Bootstrap + Comic Sans everywhere. Beautiful.

I'm partial to Papyrus myself. Tribal, yet futuristic.
