The one-paragraph overview
Everything in Doczoid lives inside a Team. A team holds Docs (Notion-style text with optional diagrams) and Zoids (slide presentations). On any canvas — a Diagram or a Zoid slide — you arrange shapes and connect them with edges, and you can wrap related shapes in a Container to group and theme them. When a piece of content needs to appear in more than one place, you turn it into a PortalSnip — a snippet that updates everywhere it's used. And because teams work together, every document supports live collaboration: shared editing, comments, presence, and version history.
