[`MIME_TYPES`](https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/src/constants.ts#L101) contains all the mime types supported by `Excalidraw`.
[`MIME_TYPES`](https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/packages/excalidraw/constants.ts#L101) contains all the mime types supported by `Excalidraw`.
We support a simplified API to make it easier to generate Excalidraw elements programmatically. This API is in beta and subject to change before stable. You can check the [PR](https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/pull/6546) for more details.
For this purpose we introduced a new type [`ExcalidrawElementSkeleton`](https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/src/data/transform.ts#L133). This is the simplified version of [`ExcalidrawElement`](https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/src/element/types.ts#L134) type with the minimum possible attributes so that creating elements programmatically is much easier (especially for cases like binding arrows or creating text containers).

## readyPromise
:::info The `Ref` support has been removed in v0.17.0 so if you are using refs, please update the integration to use the `excalidrawAPI`.
Additionally `ready` and `readyPromise` from the API have been discontinued. These APIs were found to be superfluous, and as part of the effort to streamline the APIs and maintain simplicity, they were removed in version v0.17.0.
Since plain object is passed as a `ref`, the `readyPromise` is resolved as soon as the component is mounted. Most of the time you will not need this unless you have a specific use case where you can't pass the `ref` in the react way and want to do some action on the host when this promise resolves.

### Storing custom data on Excalidraw elements
Beyond attributes that Excalidraw elements already support, you can store `custom` data on each `element` in a `customData` object. The type of the attribute is [`Record<string, any>`](https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/src/element/types.ts#L66) and is optional.

You can use this to add any extra information you need to keep track of.
You can add `customData` to elements when passing them as [`initialData`](/docs/@excalidraw/excalidraw/api/props/initialdata), or using [`updateScene`](/docs/@excalidraw/excalidraw/api/props/ref#updatescene) / [`updateLibrary`](/docs/@excalidraw/excalidraw/api/props/ref#updatelibrary) afterwards.

maxX: number,

### elementsOverlappingBBox
To filter `elements` that are inside, overlap, or contain the `bounds` rectangle.
The bounds check is approximate and does not precisely follow the element's shape. You can also supply `errorMargin` which effectively makes the `bounds` larger by that amount.
This API has 3 `type`s of operation: `overlap`, `contain`, and `inside`:
- `overlap` - filters elements that are overlapping or inside bounds.
- `contain` - filters elements that are inside bounds or bounds inside elements.
- `inside` - filters elements that are inside bounds.
import { elementsOverlappingBBox } from "@excalidraw/excalidraw";
```
### isElementInsideBBox
Lower-level API than `elementsOverlappingBBox` to check if a single `element` is inside `bounds`. If `eitherDirection=true`, returns `true` if `element` is fully inside `bounds` rectangle, or vice versa. When `false`, it returns `true` only for the former case.

### ReferenceError: process is not defined
When using `vite` or any build tools, you will have to make sure the `process` is accessible as we are accessing `process.env.IS_PREACT` to decide whether to use `preact` build.
Since Vite removes env variables by default, you can update the vite config to ensure its available :point_down:
Since _Excalidraw_ doesn't support server side rendering, you should render the component once the host is `mounted`.
Since Excalidraw doesn't support `server side rendering` so it should be rendered only on `client`. The way to achieve this in next.js is using `next.js dynamic import`.
The following workflow shows one way how to render Excalidraw on Next.js. We'll add more detailed and alternative Next.js examples, soon.
If you want to only import `Excalidraw` component you can do :point_down:
However the above component only works for named component exports. If you want to import some util / constant or something else apart from Excalidraw, then this approach will not work. Instead you can write a wrapper over Excalidraw and import the wrapper dynamically.
If you are using `pages router` then importing the wrapper dynamically would work, where as if you are using `app router` then you will have to also add `useClient` directive on top of the file in addition to dynamically importing the wrapper as shown :point_down:
Here is a [source code](https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/tree/master/examples/excalidraw/with-nextjs) for the example with app and pages router. You you can try it out [here](https://excalidraw-package-example-with-nextjs-gh6smrdnq-excalidraw.vercel.app/).
The `types` are available at `@excalidraw/excalidraw/types`, you can view [example for typescript](https://codesandbox.io/s/excalidraw-types-9h2dm)
### Preact
Since we support `umd` build ships with `react/jsx-runtime` and `react-dom/client` inlined with the package. This conflicts with `Preact` and hence the build doesn't work directly with `Preact`.
However we have shipped a separate build for `Preact` so if you are using `Preact` you need to set `process.env.IS_PREACT` to `true` to use the `Preact` build.
Once the above `env` variable is set, you will be able to use the package in `Preact` as well.

For this we have `converters` which takes the parsed mermaid data and gives back the Excalidraw Skeleton.
For Unsupported types, we have already mentioned above that we convert it to `dataURL` and return the ExcalidrawImageSkeleton.

Frames should be ordered where frame children come first, followed by the frame element itself:
```
[
other_element,
frame1_child1,
frame1_child2,
frame1,
other_element,
frame2_child1,
frame2_child2,
frame2,
other_element,

]

If not ordered correctly, the editor will still function, but the elements may not be rendered and clipped correctly. Further, the renderer relies on this ordering for performance optimizations.

This is a [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) project bootstrapped with [`create-next-app`](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/packages/create-next-app).
## Getting Started
First, run the development server:
```bash
npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev
# or
bun dev
```
Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3005) with your browser to see the result.
You can start editing the page by modifying `app/page.tsx`. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.
This project uses [`next/font`](https://nextjs.org/docs/basic-features/font-optimization) to automatically optimize and load Inter, a custom Google Font.
