About Whiteboard

Whiteboard - published at dev.fast and currently in beta - is a desktop canvas for working through software problems visually. Its interface shows a repository's source tree alongside commits, diffs and trace views, so exploration, selection and context-shaping happen on one surface instead of across terminal tabs.

The project is open source under the MIT license, with builds for macOS, Windows and Linux. Its site documents a proposed diff search API with example caller code, inviting contributors to dive into the implementation.

The site's footer notes backing by Y Combinator; that is the vendor's own statement. A star link and chat channel sit alongside the download, reflecting the project's community-driven stage.

Perfect for

Developers who think visually and want to explore a codebase, its history and its diffs on a canvas, and open-source contributors looking for an early-stage project to shape.

Solves these problems

Understanding an unfamiliar codebase means juggling an editor, git log, and diff tools in separate windows, with no way to lay the pieces out and see the shape of the problem.
