Try it out

The latest stable build is hosted [here] (http://drichard.org/mindmaps).

Build

In order to build the application yourself you need to have node.js and jake installed. Then run the jakefile:

cd /build
jake

The finished build will appear in /bin.

Host yourself

All you need is a web server for static files. Copy all files from /bin into your web directory and launch the app with index.html. Make sure your web server serves .manifest files with the mime type text/cache-manifest for the application to be accessible offline.

In Apache add the following line to your .htaccess:

AddType text/cache-manifest .manifest

In nginx add this to conf/mime.types:

text/cache-manifest manifest;
