MIND MAPPING
Mind Mapping
Mind mapping starts with a big idea. From there you work your way down into smaller and smaller concepts. The big idea is like the trunk of a tree, each idea a branch, each sub-idea a smaller branch, and so on down until you get to the twigs and leaves. You can always follow any branch back to get to the main idea.
Mind Map
Mind Mapping is a great way to lay out your thoughts and brainstorm new ideas. Rather than just using simple lists, you’re able to link ideas in multiple different ways. You can think creatively rather than just linearly.

( Kind of sofware that can make a mind mapping )
There are a lot of good mind mapping apps available and since the creative process tends to be quite personal, it’s difficult to draw hard and fast “this is better” comparisons between them. All the mind mapping apps featured below are good; it’s just that some of them will be better for you than others.
1. Bubbl.us (Web)
Bubbl.us is a web-based mind mapping software tool. Unlike some of the other solutions which often try to do a lot more, Bubbl.us is focussed on pure mind mapping. It’s one of the simplest cloud brainstorming apps available.
2. XMind 8 (macOS, Windows, iOS)
XMind is one of the more professional options available and may be the best mind map software for Mac. There are three different pricing options, XMind 8 (free), XMind 8 Plus ($79), and XMind Pro ($99) but to make the most of it, you’ll need to shell out for Plus at the very least, and realistically, for Pro.
While you can create mind maps with the basic plan, you can’t export them to other formats. The Plus plan adds the ability to export them
3. WiseMapping (Web)
WiseMapping is a free online mind mapping software solution for individuals and businesses. Since it just runs with a browser, it doesn’t matter what device you use to access it.
4. Coggle
WiseMapping is a free online mind mapping software solution for individuals and businesses. Since it just runs with a browser, it doesn’t matter what device you use to access it. Coggle is an online mind map that you can use in Chrome. It comes in three flavors. These are "free", "awesome" and "organization". I’m sure I don’t have to explain what "free" means. Try it out. It has quite a lot of functionality and allows you to mind map in different colors!
