What it does

Fast to think in

Tab for a child, Enter for the next one at the same level. Keyboard-complete on desktop, including node changes.

Easy backups

Every change saves itself, a copy of each day is kept for a month, and one button writes every map to a single file you keep.

Good on a phone

Built for a small screen first. Drag a branch to move it, hold to lift it, focus one branch when the map outgrows the screen.

Paste a list, get a branch

Notes written elsewhere become a subtree in one paste — bullets optional, any indentation.

What it doesn't do

Most of these would need the server this app doesn't have.

  • No accounts, server, collaboration or sync between devices
  • No cloud storage, and no backend of any kind
  • No analytics, telemetry or cookie banners
  • No themes beyond following your system's light and dark setting

MIT licensed, so forking is a reasonable answer to anything on that list.

No network requests after the page loads

Open developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and use the app. After the initial load there is nothing — no analytics, no fonts from a CDN, no autosave to a server.

Maps live in this browser only. They don't follow you to another device, and clearing site data deletes them. Settings writes every map to one file you keep.
