• Free Hand: Click and drag to draw freehand on the canvas.
• Straight Lines: Select the line tool and click to start a line, then drag to finish.

• Load Drawing: Click the "Load" button to restore the last saved drawing from local storage.

Note: Saved drawings are stored in the browser, so they will persist even if you refresh the page, but they will not carry over to other devices or browsers.

Customization
