Pick the right export format
Every project's mindmap can leave OpenMind in six formats. Same data, different shape — pick whichever your destination tool understands.
- .md
Markdown
Best for handing the graph to another LLM or pasting into a doc. An indented bullet list under the project title, each node tagged with its kind, and any cross-links listed at the end. Renders in any Markdown editor.
- .mmd
Mermaid mindmap
Renders inline in GitHub PRs, GitLab issues, Obsidian, Notion, and most modern docs. Cross-relations land as a comment footer.
- .opml
OPML 2.0
For outliner apps — OmniOutliner, Workflowy, Dynalist. Imports cleanly into anything that reads OPML.
- .mm
FreeMind
For classic mindmap apps — Freeplane, Mindjet, MindMeister, XMind (with importer). Preserves the tree shape verbatim.
- .png
PNG image
Drop into slide decks, social posts, status updates. Renders the Mermaid view at presentation resolution, for maps of fewer than 1,500 nodes.
- .svg
SVG image
Lossless, scales to any size, editable in Illustrator / Figma / Inkscape. Pick this if you'll touch it up before sharing. Fewer than 1,500 nodes, like PNG.
To export: open any project, click "Export ▾" in the workspace header, pick a format. The file downloads with your project title as the filename.
