Excalidraw Content Diagrams
Use this for fast, clear diagrams that help explain ideas in videos, posts, lessons, and presentations.
Workflow
- Define the concept and audience.
- Gather grounding context from YouTube, notes, Readwise, script, or user outline if needed.
- Choose the diagram type:
- Concept map.
- Before/after.
- System loop.
- Stack/layers.
- Timeline.
- Comparison.
- Funnel.
- Keep text minimal; the visual should carry the idea.
- Create shareable/exportable diagram output when tooling is available.
- Ask for or apply visual refinements: less text, more space, clearer hierarchy.
Style Rules
- Prefer large shapes and clear labels.
- Keep one idea per panel.
- Use containers/cards for grouped concepts.
- Avoid dense paragraphs.
- Design as if it may appear on screen in a video.
- Include a link or file path to the finished diagram.
Skill Stacking
Pair with:
youtube-transcript-researcher for creator voice/style.
readwise-content-miner for idea source material.
artifact-pipeline to turn diagrams into slides, scripts, or landing pages.
