Really love this style of writing. Pairing the diagrams/illustrations with the easy to grok copy is really helpful for folks like myself who have been mainly focused on the front-end.

What tool do you use for your diagramming, is it all hand-drawn?

Font for the handwriting is Skippy Sharp, incase anyone else was wondering.
Its hand drawn with some fonts for the titles.
This is what I do for my presentations (on a wacom of course). I have gotten grief over it, but I work faster and get less distracted by the eccentricacies of powerpoint and figma. My handwriting is abysmal so I will do that in a "handwriting font" to sort of look hand drawn. Even if I have to convert them later for some big wig, at least I have my "rough draft". Plus it all feels a little more human.
