Replit introduced draw files (.draw extension) using the open-source Excalidraw library, enabling collaborative whiteboarding within repls. The files are multiplayer by default, allowing all repl participants to sketch and diagram together.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://replit.com/blog/draw:

> Today we're excited to announce support for draw files, powered by excalidraw ! Any new file with the .draw extension will become a whiteboard to sketch shapes, draw freely, and add text. These files are multiplayer by default, anyone who joins your repl will be able to sketch and diagram along with you.
