How to extend it

  1. Make your own copy

    Click Download JSON at the bottom of this page. On the MindShare home screen, drop the file into Upload the file, then click Save and keep the address it opens. Open graph only shows our copy.

  2. Read Start here

    Click the star. It says what each type is for and which fields need a value.

  3. Set your community

    Click Home Espresso and change it to your subreddit, forum or group.

  4. Add your next thread

    Ctrl/Cmd-click the empty canvas, enter a unique ID (it can't be changed later), a name and the type Thread. Fill in its fields: every date and number needs a value.

  5. Link it

    Ctrl/Cmd-click the community, then the new thread, and name the link, for example is posted in. Set Direction 0.

  6. Keep the comments and the answer

    Add only the comments that matter and link each to what it replies to. Then add an Answer / Takeaway in your own words and link it to the thread it answers and the comment it came from.

  7. Or let your AI assistant fill it in

    Give the JSON file and the thread text you copied to the AI assistant you already use. Ask it to add your items in the same format as the samples, then import the result on the home screen.

  8. Delete the samples and save

    Once each type has one of your own nodes, delete the espresso samples. A type no node uses is dropped when you save. Click Save after every change.
