Your first mindmap in 60 seconds

Create your first mindmap and capture ideas entirely from the keyboard.

Your first mindmap in 60 seconds

webermap is keyboard-first. You never need the mouse to build a full structure. Follow these steps and you will have your first mindmap in about a minute.

1. Create a new mindmap

  1. In the dashboard, click New mindmap.
  2. Type a name, such as “Q3 Campaign”, and confirm with Enter.
  3. The editor opens with a central root node, and the cursor is already inside it.

2. Name the root node

Just start typing, for example Product launch. Press Esc to leave edit mode without losing anything.

3. Build structure from the keyboard

This is where webermap gets fast:

  • Tab adds a child node (one level deeper).
  • Enter adds a sibling node (same level).
  • Shift+Tab moves a node one level left (outdent).
  • Use the arrow keys to move between nodes.

For example, under “Product launch” capture the children Audience, Channels, and Budget. Press Enter for each sibling, Tab to go one level deeper.

4. Rename and delete nodes

  • Double-click, or press Enter on a selected node, to start editing.
  • Select a node and press Backspace to remove it along with its children.

5. Save and share

webermap saves automatically and in real time. There is nothing to save manually. Use Share in the top right to invite colleagues or generate a link.

  • Learn the core keyboard shortcuts to make your workflow even smoother.

Tip: on your first try, keep your hands on the keyboard. Tab and Enter alone are enough to build a complete mindmap.
