This site documents progress on building a file type compatible replacement for iThoughts / iThoughtsX that can 'run anywhere'
The entire contents of this page is still being edited in 'the original' iThoughtsX on my Mac. This demo software reads the original format which is sitting in a shared folder. No importing or exporting needed.
New Features and differences to iThoughtsX
The Beta is here, please try and give me feedback
A big thanks to all those who are submitting feedback. Thanks thanks thanks!!!! I’m adding lots of things to the todo!

13th August
I've been working on the code for this website. Its currently running an old python version of my early code. I'll shortly cut the backend over to the new beta code (with some tweaks to it so it can serve up maps like this code does)
I have the Tauri Android app running now, I'm using it on my phone and still finding a few bugs, so I'll hold off the release until I update this website.
28th July - working on geting a native Android version working. It turns out writing to files in the background is trickier than I thought. Making progress though.
6th August - this is another node added by the native Android App (devel only but I will release this as beta when stable)
22nd July - I just got a Tauri native version of the BETA running on my mac! - It still needs work before release, but this is looking promising as I successfully saved changes. (Updated: I even got it to work on my old Catalina macbookair)
Here are some test nodes to play with (try moving them around with keyboard commands (if you are a seasoned iThoughtsX user), try using number keys to open N levels. Or try dragging a node to the LHS (to move to sibling) or RHS (to move to child) of an existing node.
