Mind Map Maker
What Mind Map Maker is
Mind Map Maker is a free, open-source browser app for building mind maps. It works offline and runs on the web, with maps stored in browser storage, Google Drive, or the maker’s public server. Nodes can include rich text, images, videos, URLs, hand-drawn images, and image nodes. You can connect nodes that are not otherwise related and adjust font face, border styling, transparency, and connecting-line width. Google Drive supports opening and saving maps, with transfers made directly between the browser and Drive. Maps can be exported as PDF or image files; PDF export uses Chrome’s print dialog and Save as PDF option. Public-server maps are readable by anyone who has their URL, limited to 12MB, backed up monthly, and retained for one year. Browser storage is otherwise described as limited to 5MB unless unlimited storage is granted. Real-time collaboration is not available.
