About the Mind Map tool

H Mind Map is a free, browser-based mind mapping tool for visually organizing ideas, plans, and notes. Start from a single central topic, branch out with child and sibling nodes, and rearrange everything with simple drag-and-drop. It's a fast way to brainstorm, outline a document, or break a project into manageable pieces — no signup and no install.

How to make a mind map

1. Open the tool and start from the central node — double-click or press F2 to edit its text.
2. Press Tab to add a child node, or Enter to add a sibling at the same level.
3. Drag nodes around the canvas to arrange them, or click Auto layout to tidy the whole map at once.
4. Use the side and properties panels to set node shape, color theme, font size, and bold or italic styling.
5. Save your work as a .hmind file, or export the map to PNG or Markdown.

Key features

• Drag-and-drop nodes — move any node freely on the canvas to shape your map by hand.
• Save and load .hmind files — keep your full mind map as a JSON-based file and reopen it anytime.
• Export to PNG and Markdown — share a picture of your map or turn it into a structured outline document.
• Keyboard shortcuts — Tab for a child, Enter for a sibling, Delete to remove, F2 to edit, Space to collapse.
• Auto layout — automatically arrange branches into a clean, readable structure with one click.
• Node styling — choose shapes (cloud, star, hexagon, ellipse, rounded, rectangle), color themes, and per-level styles.
• Auto-save — your work is saved to local storage every 30 seconds so progress isn't lost.
• Undo and redo — step back and forth through up to 50 recent changes.
• Dark mode — switch to a dark theme to reduce eye strain.

Common use cases

• Brainstorming ideas and connecting related concepts during planning.
• Outlining articles, presentations, or study notes before writing.
• Breaking a project down into tasks, milestones, and subtasks.
• Mapping decisions, dependencies, or the structure of a topic you're learning.

Private and instant

The whole tool runs in your browser. Your mind maps stay on your own device — saved locally as .hmind files or in browser storage — and nothing is uploaded to a server. That keeps your ideas private and makes everything respond instantly. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Tip: press Tab to branch deeper and Enter to add items at the same level — you can build an entire map from the keyboard without touching the mouse.
