Meet Mindflow, the free local mindmap with local AI dev by some quantitized models :P

Hi there, it's my first post there and i'm not a native english speaker so what's follow is (mostly) translated by an AI.

I had fun building a mindmap tool in a single monolithic HTML file. I was looking for a simple tool to draw basic mindmaps and found nothing. So i told myself : what if I use a local AI to generate the code. Don't ask me why I started this two weeks ago, I have no valid reason beside this one. \^\^

The firsts steps where promising, i used Qwen 3.6-27b on my 4090 and it generate the core of the tool fast and clean. But the context awareness and speed became problematics (agentic coding need constant context processing and it became really slow on my setup) so i had to rely on Deepseekv4 to finish the job faster (sad 4090 owner here).

Later I found it fun to add an AI assistant to help generate the diagrams. It's not perfect and sometimes does weird stuff, but overall it works.

The AI assistant works well locally (tested with Gemma 4 26B Q4_K_M via LM Studio).

Anyway, it's free, no account, no data theft, no nothing. There shouldn't be any security issues.

If the tool interests you, you can help improve it. I'll keep tinkering and fixing bugs as I run into them. I might try adding features, my only self-imposed constraint is that everything must stay in a single and local monolithic file.

Any feedback and/or constructive criticism is welcome.
