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.
