🧠 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.
