What Mind Map Generator does
A mind map generator that turns a plain indented outline into a structured, color-coded mind map instantly. Users type a central idea and indent sub-ideas with spaces or tabs, and the map redraws live as they type. The resulting map can be opened in OmniCanvas, where it lives on an infinite canvas — branches can be dragged, media added, and maps linked together. The tool requires no signup or software installation and is free to start.
