I had this error, but I was able to fix it by realizing I had a merge conflict in some of my Excalidraw data. I got an error in the console saying "<<<<<<< HEAD" wasn't valid JSON. You may look into having invalid syntax/data in the pages that store your Excalidraw data
@JoshGJPI Thank you for the feedback, I'll take a closer look.
I have been noticing excalidraw updating the save file everytime it opens, even when there isn't any material change to the drawing. And it has been causing some git merge issues. How did you go about managing conflict, besides manually resolving them?
@bn-c This was the first time I've had a merge conflict. I had to resolve this one manually. I've set my repo to resolve merges using ort-mode by default, and that's significantly reduced the number of conflicts we've gotten. I have a team of 4 using LogSeq daily for our workflow.
This plugin has been a great help for generating and sharing sketches. Thank you @haydenull!
