🧠 Mind Map Maker
Branch out from a central idea: add nodes, edit them, and grow a mind map — then export it as a PNG, PDF or reusable JSON.
Drag any node to reposition its branch · double-click a node to add a child · "Re-tidy" restores the automatic layout. Saved locally; export PNG/PDF/JSON.
How the mind map maker works
A mind map starts from one central idea and branches outward into related thoughts, mirroring how ideas actually connect. Click any node to select it, edit its text, and add a child (a sub-idea) or a sibling (a parallel idea); the map re-arranges itself automatically into a tidy tree. Branches are colour-coded so the structure stays readable as it grows. Export the finished map as a PNG or PDF to share, or as JSON to reload and keep editing later — all saved in your browser.
Mind mapping is at its best when you don't stop to judge: get the branches down fast, then reorganise. Because each top-level branch gets its own colour, a glance tells you whether your thinking is lopsided — five branches under one idea and none under another usually means there's more to explore. Everything stays on your device.
Frequently asked questions
What is a mind map good for?
Brainstorming, note-taking, planning and organising ideas. Starting from a central concept and branching outward matches how thoughts associate, so it's faster than a linear list for exploring a topic.
How do I add and edit nodes?
Click a node to select it, type its text in the box above, then use "+ Child" for a sub-idea or "+ Sibling" for a parallel one. The layout re-tidies itself automatically as you add.
Can I export my mind map?
Yes — as a PNG or PDF image to share or print, or as a JSON file that you can re-import later to keep editing. The map is also auto-saved in your browser.
Is my mind map private?
Completely — it's stored only in your browser and never uploaded. Export a JSON backup to move it between devices yourself.
What do the colours mean?
Each top-level branch and everything under it shares a colour, so the major themes of your map stay visually distinct as it grows.
