Emacs has a built-in rudimentary drawing mode (ASCII-art only, obviously) that can be invoked with `M-x picture-mode`.

Also of note, artist-mode: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~tab/artist/

Woah, this looks awesome! I can totally see myself integrating this into my org-roam workflow. Thank you for sharing!

I use that, it is useful for small drawings, not so much for handwriting. When using it with a tablet, maybe with some algorithm improvements, it can be as good as Inkscape.

What's impressive is that this is not tied to Linux utilities. In fact, the author developed it in Windows!

Outstanding. The only thing Emacs now lacks is a decent editor.

That color picker looks nifty, might want to install this just for that!

In emacs you do things the emacs way. You will have a hard time if you try to fight it. This is doing something other than text editing, and therefore it is fighting against Emacs.

Better than many online tools, except for collaboration.

I always used picture-mode for that but i may look at this,
