#Mind Map of Knowledge 📚 + Alfred Workflow 🎩 + Index 🗄️ ####(the above link is clickable and leads to an interactive mindmap) (p.s. all underlined nodes are hyperlinks and lead to other mindmaps) (will need to wait a bit for it to load 😞) (but when it does, enjoy 😀) (you can also search through the index for what you want or use my Alfred workflow to instantly open the mind map you need wherever you are)

Here is an article I wrote on why I made this and what the future of this project is. In short, mind maps are an incredibly effective way to make the connections between different areas in whatever I am trying to researh and learn. I just want to share this knowledge. I also use Anki to retain it all in memory. Contributions are most welcome. Let's do this together.

And here is a talk I really love on what research really means and how you can conduct it efficiently. Transcript of it.

##My Personal Articles 📖 I love writing. I find the act of writing really enjoyable as I try to condense information in a way that another person can understand.

##My GitHup Repositories 👾

I really love programming, building and sharing the things I have built. Aside from this I am currently working on a macOS app to track events that I have done.

##Contributing 🎉 There is a lot of knowledge that can be shared. I would love to visualise it for myself and every one else. I would love it if you could contribute and add your own knowledge or links to this mind map. You can do so by starting an issue and writing what it is that you want to add to it that I have missed. Here is an example of one possible request.

Do you have a favourite book or course or project that you have found that you really love? Do you have a favourite website or article or quote? You can just open an issue and say what it is you wish was added that is missing. Perhaps there is a huge area of research that I missed all together and you wish it would be added to the main mind map, just open an issue and say it.

As it currently stands, this mind map is used mainly by me but as I explore further and further and do more research, I will try to structure knowledge in a way that visualises the various connections in a way that makes more and more sense. I really dislike the black box nature of Google where you have to know what to ask before getting an answer.

If you do want to help me make my vision of open sourcing and visualising all of the world's knowledge in this way a reality, you can try look into websites, blogs, GitHub repos, images, reddit subreddits, quora communities and see what I have missed adding there that you think should be added. Quality over quantitiy though. The goal is to represent knoweldge visually and see connections between each of the nodes.

There are many other mind maps that you can explore and I would really love to hear your thoughts and suggestions of what I can add or how I can improve this project. I am heavily learning and experimenting with the web stack as I have some really exciting plans for this project, mind maps and visualisation in general. If you find this idea appealing to you, please message me and I would love to hear your thoughts.

#Future 🚀

I want to develop a web interface search engine for these mind maps and create visualisations in code for each of the topics.

##Other folders in this repository 📁

I am still thinking how I will try to structure this project and this repository well. I want the contents of the mind maps to be indexed by search engines as currently that is not the case. This way of presenting information is still quite new to the web. For now I will export certain mind maps into folders with a respective image and index. I will automate exporting in the future and hope everything will be exported both in textual and image format and as a live mind map of links.

Here are the folders I have currently migrated in this way. The most up-to-date version of the content will always be the big research mind map. All of the folders below can also be found there.

code folder includes interesting mind maps related to programming
top folder contains all mind maps that I found to be particularly interesting to transfer in the textual and image format
personal folder contains my articles and my GitHub repositores in the textual and image format
- once again, the most up-to-date version will always be the live mind map
index folder includes some of the mind maps that I translated from the research mind map to textual index and image
pdfs currently contain some past notes I have made before I was introduced to this neat mind map format
- I may add some interesting free of license pdfs to it in the future

#Ask 💬 If you have some specific questions about this project or about myself, my interests and my personal workflow. I would love to hear them and you can ask them here. You can also view past questions that I have answered.
