Workspaces

LetDraw can keep your content two ways: without an account (local) and signed in (cloud). Locally, your drawings stay on your device; when you sign in, content is organized into workspaces, folders, and documents and synced to the cloud.

  • Without an account (guest): No installation or account needed. Your drawings are kept in browser storage (on your device), work offline, and are restored the next time you open the app. You work on a single local canvas; you can save and open it as .letdraw or export to PNG / SVG / PDF anytime.
  • Signed in (cloud): Once you sign in, your content is organized into workspaces, folders, and documents and synced to the cloud, so you can access it from different devices, share it, and (on Pro) collaborate. It keeps working offline and syncs when your connection returns.

LetDraw file navigator: workspace, folder, and document

When signed in, content is organized in a three-level hierarchy:

  • Workspace: The top-level container. It belongs to a person or a team and holds folders and documents together. You can keep different work in separate workspaces (e.g. personal, team, client).
  • Folder: A directory for grouping documents inside a workspace. Folders can be nested; you can create subfolders inside a folder.
  • Document: The canvas you draw on; a single LetDraw file with a name, its content (the scene), and a thumbnail. A folder can hold multiple documents.

└─ Folder (can be nested)
└─ Document

You manage workspaces, folders, and documents from the in-app file navigator:

  • Create: add a new workspace, folder, and document.
  • Rename: rename any item.
  • Move: drag and drop documents between folders.
  • Switch: if you have multiple workspaces, switch between them quickly.
  • Delete: remove items you no longer need.
  • Autosave: every change is saved automatically (to the browser locally, to the cloud when signed in).
  • .letdraw file: save a document as .letdraw and open it elsewhere.
  • Export: PNG / SVG / PDF; plus recording the drawing process as WebM (see Export).

When signed in, your documents sync to the cloud. Sync batches writes (debounced) and flushes changes when you close the tab, keeping them safe. You can keep working offline; changes sync once the connection is back.

Snapshots of larger drawings are end-to-end encrypted: small scenes are kept inline, larger ones are encrypted and uploaded to storage, so the server cannot see your content.

On the Pro plan, documents keep a version history; you can view earlier versions from a chronological list.

The number of workspaces, folders, and documents depends on your plan.

PlanWorkspacesFoldersDocuments
Free1None (cannot be created)Up to 3
ProUp to 10UnlimitedUnlimited
EnterpriseUnlimitedUnlimitedUnlimited

On Free you cannot create your own folders; your documents are kept in the workspace (in a default folder), up to 3 documents. On Pro folders and documents are unlimited, and workspaces are capped at 10. On Enterprise everything is unlimited.

When you self-host (see Self-hosting) the deployment is licensed as a whole and billing is off, so workspaces, folders, and documents are unlimited.
