THOUGHTS EMERGED ALONG THE WAY
- Isn't it funny that the script for "Connect the dots!" is actually disconnecting the dots by taking out all the lines?!
- Making a small ecosystem of drawing tools is challenging (+exciting (>_<);;) when your server doesn't have big storage space, when there are many contributors with multiple output formats...
- This drawing tool is not only an instrument to draw but also a method to circulate drawings!
