Here’s a full summary of your mind map app project, including the core idea, tech stack, features, and architecture for your XMind-like clone built with FastAPI + React Flow.


---



PROJECT NAME:

MindMapX (or any name of your choice)


---



CORE IDEA:

Build a web-based XMind-like application where users can:

Create, edit, and visualize hierarchical mind maps (drag-drop nodes).

Save, export, and import maps as .json files.

Use basic authentication (login/signup) to store maps per user securely.

Support real-time interactions and modern UI using React Flow.

Backend powered by FastAPI for speed, structure, and API logic.



---



TECH STACK

Frontend (React + React Flow):

React (with Hooks & Axios)

React Flow for node/edge diagramming

JSON file export/import support

Token-based Auth using localStorage


Backend (FastAPI):

FastAPI for API and Auth

JWT-based Authentication

In-memory or file/DB-based storage for user maps

CORS and secure endpoints



---



FEATURES

1. Mind Map Editor

Add/edit/delete nodes and edges

Drag-and-drop visual interface using React Flow

Central root node support


2. JSON Import/Export

Export mind map to .json file

Import .json file and restore full map (nodes + edges)


3. User Authentication

Signup/login using FastAPI backend

Passwords hashed using bcrypt

JWT tokens issued on login

Authenticated routes for saving/loading maps


4. Mind Map Persistence

Each user’s maps are stored independently

Save and load from backend using token-based access



---



ARCHITECTURE

Frontend Flow

Login Page  Token  Mind Map Canvas (React Flow)
                     Import JSON
                     Export JSON
                     Save/Load using token

Backend (FastAPI) Routes

POST /signup          -> Create user
POST /login           -> Return JWT token
POST /save            -> Save mind map (token required)
GET /load             -> Load map by user (token required)
POST /upload          -> Optional JSON upload endpoint


---



JSON Structure

{
  "id": "map1",
  "nodes": [
    {
      "id": "1",
      "data": { "label": "Root" },
      "position": { "x": 250, "y": 0 }
    }
  ],
  "edges": [
    {
      "id": "e1-2",
      "source": "1",
      "target": "2"
    }
  ]
}


---



POTENTIAL FUTURE FEATURES

Cloud storage with database

Collaboration (WebSocket/Socket.IO)

Mind map templates

Rich text & icons in nodes

Zoom, pan, collapse branches



---



GOAL:

Build the first version in a day with:

Fully working frontend editor (React Flow)

Working backend (FastAPI Auth + Save/Load)

Export/import JSON support



---



Would you like me to generate the full project folder with boilerplate files for frontend and backend to get you started immediately?
