SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you quickly turn ideas and structured thinking into readable hierarchical mind maps, avoiding messy manual diagramming.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • PlantUML mindmap generation: Produces hierarchy-based mind maps that reliably render with @startmindmap and @endmindmap.
  • Branch control & styling: Supports left/right splitting, direction control (top-to-bottom / right-to-left), and per-node styling with colors and reusable <style> themes.
  • Better note organization: Enables study outlines and brainstorming decompositions using multi-line block nodes and optional boxless nodes for lightweight annotations.

Quick Start

Generate a mind map by writing a PlantUML block that starts with @startmindmap, defines your root and branches using *, **, *** (or +/- for side growth), and ends with @endmindmap.

Frequently Asked Questions about mindmap

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a hierarchical mind map in PlantUML for brainstorming?▼

To create a hierarchical mind map in PlantUML, use the strict @startmindmap and @endmindmap syntax, defining your root and branches using asterisks like *, **, *** to structure and visualize brainstorming decompositions.

What is the best way to structure study notes as a PlantUML diagram?▼

The best way to structure study notes is by generating a PlantUML mindmap, utilizing multi-line block nodes and optional boxless nodes to create lightweight, readable hierarchical study outlines for topic decomposition.

Can I split my PlantUML mindmap to show pros and cons on different sides?▼

Yes, you can split your PlantUML mindmap to show bilateral pros and cons layouts by using the plus and minus symbols for side growth, enabling left and right branch control from the central root.

Does PlantUML support per-node styling and reusable themes for mind maps?▼

PlantUML supports per-node styling with colors and reusable style themes for mind maps, allowing consistent diagram styling across projects while applying direction control like right-to-left or top-to-bottom.

Why does my PlantUML mind map fail to render correctly?▼

Your PlantUML mind map likely fails to render if it lacks the strict @startmindmap and @endmindmap tags, uses incorrect marker-based depth rules, or omits proper PlantUML fenced rendering syntax.
