Creating a folder structure from Mindnode

You can export from MindNode a couple of ways. All via File > Export To >

Here’s a quick mind map, let’s see what we can do with it.

Markdown

The first useful thing in the list is File > Export To > Markdown. There are no further options, so Export... and let’s see what we have.

That’s pretty good, and will import in to Bear (just copy/paste it) really nicely. If you’re on the latest version of Bear, those headers can now be folded using the little triangle to their left.

Plain text

You can also File > Export To > Text > Plain Text. That gives us an indented version of the same.

Also not bad, but Bear won’t recognise that as anything special. You may prefer this? Put it in a code block?
