The `<Tldraw>` component is the easiest way to get started. To use it, create a file like this one:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```tsx
|
||
|
import { Tldraw } from '@tldraw/tldraw'
|
||
|
import '@tldraw/tldraw/tldraw.css'
|
||
|
|
||
|
export default function () {
|
||
|
return (
|
||
|
<div style={{ position: 'fixed', inset: 0 }} >
|
||
|
<Tldraw />
|
||
|
</div>
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### CSS
|
||
|
|
||
|
In order to use the `<Tldraw>` component, you should also import the `tldraw.css` file from the `@tldraw/tldraw` package. You can alternatively import this file inside of another CSS file using the `@import` syntax.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can overwrite these files with other CSS or copy the contents into a different file and import that instead.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### HTML
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you're using the `<Tldraw>` component in a full-screen app, you probably also want to update your `index.html`'s meta viewport element as shown below.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```html
|
||
|
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, viewport-fit=cover" />
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
This may not be critical to `<Tldraw>` performing correctly, however some features (such as safe area positioning) will only work correctly if these viewport options are set.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Using in Next.js, Create React App, Vite, etc.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Check the [examples repository](https://github.com/tldraw/examples) to see examples of tldraw being used in various frameworks.
|
||
|
|
||
|
By the way, the `<Tldraw>` component can't be server-rendered. If you're using the component in a server-rendered framework (such as Next.js) then you need to import it dynamically.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Going deeper
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `<Tldraw>` component combines two lower-level components: `<TldrawEditor>` and `<TldrawUi>`. If you want to have more granular control, you can use those lower-level components directly. See [this example](https://github.com/tldraw/tldraw/blob/main/apps/examples/src/5-exploded/ExplodedExample.tsx) for reference.
