  • Full themes

    Define full style themes that match with your brand or design taste. Use tldraw’s default style or tailor everything from background color to the outline weight of a circle.

  • Reactive styles

    Any shape style property can be updated on the fly and will reactively update for rapid changes to its look and feel.

  • Overlay customization

    Change the brushes, handles, scribbles, snap indicators, selection foreground, collaborator cursors, and arrow hints that sit on the canvas overlay layer.

  • Control style options

    Extend or restrict the style panel as you need. Add or remove color and font options to control how your users can change their shapes and canvas.
