SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Helps teams and individuals visualize ideas, plans, and knowledge by generating hierarchical mind maps using PlantUML's @startmindmap syntax.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Supports hierarchical mind maps with root and nested branches using * and markers that map to levels.
  • Enables left/right layout control, radial diagram options, and per-node styling for clear emphasis.
  • Use cases include brainstorming sessions, study notes, decision trees, and project planning.
  • Example: quickly outline a topic and render a diagram to share with teammates.

Quick Start

Start with @startmindmap, define the root and branches with * markers, and wrap in a plantuml fence to render.

Frequently Asked Questions about mindmap

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I create hierarchical mind maps to visualize brainstorming results?▼

Hierarchical mind maps are generated using PlantUML's @startmindmap syntax, using * markers to map out root and nested branches, which visually structures your brainstorming results.

What is the best way to structure study notes and decision trees using PlantUML?▼

PlantUML mind maps structure study notes and decision trees by applying left/right branches and radial layouts to decompose topics hierarchically, with per-node styling for clear emphasis.

Can I use radial layouts and style individual nodes in a PlantUML mind map?▼

Yes, PlantUML mind maps support radial layouts and per-node styling, allowing you to control left/right branch directions and visually emphasize specific nodes within the hierarchy.

Does PlantUML mind map syntax require specific fencing to render diagrams consistently?▼

PlantUML mind map syntax requires plantuml fencing and proper @startmindmap/@endmindmap usage to ensure the hierarchical diagram renders consistently across different viewers.

What are the limitations of using PlantUML for project planning and topic decomposition?▼

PlantUML mind maps are limited to hierarchical structures using * markers for project planning and topic decomposition, enforcing specific root and nested branch levels rather than freeform spatial layouts.
