NodeDraft: Mind Mapping

Nexus Publishers

About this app

NodeDraft is an offline visual mind-mapping and flowchart app for organizing ideas, planning projects, and structuring complex information on a flexible canvas.

Create visual diagrams directly on your device without requiring an account or cloud service. NodeDraft is designed for users who want a simple way to arrange thoughts, connect related ideas, and turn brainstorms into structured outlines.

How NodeDraft works

Start with a node on the canvas and build your diagram by adding connected child nodes. Move nodes around the canvas using touch controls, zoom in or out, and arrange your ideas into a visual structure.

You can customize your diagrams by changing node shapes, connector styles, colors, and grid settings. This allows you to create layouts that match the way you prefer to organize information.

When you need a text-based view, switch to the outline format to work with your ideas as a structured list.
