Mind map
Radial mind maps and horizontal logic trees from Markdown-style heading and bullet syntax. Two styles — radial map and logic-right tree. Used by students, educators, project managers, and consultants for brainstorming, note-taking, knowledge structuring, and concept overviews.
Markdown heading levels set hierarchy depth. Bullets extend any heading branch.
Syntax
mindmap # optional header keyword
# Central Topic # root node (H1)
## Branch # level 1 (H2)
### Sub-branch # level 2 (H3)
#### Leaf # level 3 (H4)
- Bullet item # child of current heading
- Sub-bullet # 2 spaces = 1 deeper levelRules:
- Exactly one
#root node allowed - Heading depth (
##,###, ...) sets the tree level - Bullet indent: 2 spaces = 1 level deeper than the enclosing heading
- Comments: not supported (use
%%directives only)
Directives
%% style: map # radial map (default)
%% style: logic-right # horizontal tree branching right
%% theme: dark # theme overridePlace directives before the # root node.
Styles
| Style | Layout | Best for |
|---|---|---|
map (default) | Radial — branches spread in all directions | Brainstorming, concept maps |
logic-right | Horizontal tree — all branches go right | Structured outlines, decision hierarchies |

General-purpose flowcharts with 13 node shapes, 6 edge types, subgraph clustering, and fan-out wiring. Mermaid-compatible syntax. Used by software engineers, business analysts, and technical writers for process documentation, system design, and decision flows.
Org chart
Organizational hierarchy diagrams with role icons, open headcount, matrix reporting lines, and assistant positions. Supports tree and list layouts, top-down and left-right orientation. Used by HR teams, founders, investors, and ops managers for headcount planning, team communication, and org design.
