node id

Every Node has a default id, which is the line of number, you can also define custom id for spec node follow with node by `#{nodeId}` .
Custom node id only allowed with english charac (/a-zA-Z/)
You can use custom node id in YAML Back Matter.

parentNode
  childNode1 #customNodeId
  childNode2

importantNode

parentNode
  ! childNode1
  childNode2

importantPath

parentNode
  !! childNode1
  childNode2

rangeNode

parentNode
  !* childNode1
  childNode2

relations

`[NodeId][Link][NodeId]`

Create relation between two nodes by linenumber or node Id, which is splitted by camma

relation's direction

`[NodeId][LinkType][NodeId]`

Nodes can be connected with links/edges. It is possible to have three different types of links.`>` right link , `<` left link, `,` normal link

FreeTxtMind is an excellent tool for you to use to write outlines and see the connections between ideas in your outlines. You can rearrange the connections in your mind maps by simply cutting and pasting lines from your written outlines.

Try and edit the code on the left and watch the Mind Map change. Any changes are saved to the browser's localStorage, so your Mind Map should be here the next time, (but no guarantees).

Created by Free Txt Mind

FreeTxtMind was made possible by the cool projects jison, dagre, underscore, typicons , codemirror, solarized, nomnoml, d3, d3-annotation, rough, js-yaml and textures.
