Description

Problem

New users need useful shapes without manually importing libraries.

Tasks

  • Curate a small starter set of Excalidraw libraries that fit common collaboration scenarios.
  • Bundle them with the app and surface them prominently in the picker.
  • Provide a mechanism for updating these bundles over time.

Acceptance criteria

  • Fresh installations expose at least one bundled library out of the box.
  • Documentation explains how maintainers can refresh bundled content.

Research direction

Start by tracing the Whiteboard app's library picker and how bundled Excalidraw libraries are currently loaded, then identify where fresh-install content can be added. Define how maintainers will refresh the bundles over time. Done means a fresh installation exposes at least one curated library and the refresh process is documented.
