You can now share @[email protected] collaboration URLs more easily thanks to the Web Share API (https://web.dev/web-share/).

Excalidraw now also appears as a share target in the OS’s share sheet thanks to the Web Share Target API (https://web.dev/web-share-target/).

Integrate with the OS sharing UI with the Web Share API

With the Web Share API, web apps are able to use the same system-provided share capabilities as platform-specific apps. The Web Share API makes it possible for web apps to share links, text, and files to other apps installed on the device in the same way as platform-specific apps.

A small but important UX detail in the implementation that I want to highlight is how the share icon dynamically adapts to the platform standards: Apple vs. Android. That way people immediately recognize the action icon the design guidelines on both platforms recommend. #WebShare
