ratslate

Terminal-based infinite canvas for boxes, arrows and tables, compatible with Obsidian Canvas files.

Desktopfree

ratslate is a terminal application for building an infinite canvas of boxes, arrows, and tables using the mouse inside a TUI. It reads and writes the JSON Canvas format used by Obsidian's Canvas, so a board can round-trip between the terminal and Obsidian, and it can export a board as plain ASCII text for pasting into a README or commit message. It's aimed at developers who want to diagram without leaving the terminal, including live co-editing with an AI agent.
