Create Mind Map in Markdown

A mind map is a diagram used to visually organize information into a hierarchy, showing relationships among pieces of the whole. JotterPad uses Markmap to render mind map in Markdown files.

Create Mind map using Markmap

Mind map can be created using Markdown syntax in JotterPad's Markdown code block. To declare mind map in the code block to be rendered globally, use codeBlockRenderAs: markmap in the Markdown file's YAML.

To declare mind map to render on individual code block,

Type 3 backticks (```) at the start of the code followed by space or return key.
Press the </> button at the top right corner.
Choose markmap.
Add renderAs=markmap in metadata.

Supported Metadata:

Parameter	Type	Possible Values	Example
renderAs	string	markmap	renderAs=markmap
height	number	200	height=200
width	number	200	width=200

Use , to add multiple parameters. E.g. renderAs=markmap, height=200.
