About VYM

VYM (View Your Mind) is a mind mapping application for visualizing thoughts in tree-like structures. The same maps also work for time management, self-organization, and sorting through new ideas and complex contexts.

A personal task manager adjusts priorities and reminds you after defined time spans. Scripting drives presentations from a map, and VYM can pull data from the Jira issue tracker and talk to the Confluence documentation system.

VYM runs on Apple, Windows, and most Linux platforms, with binaries packaged as openSUSE rpm, Ubuntu deb, Apple dmg, and Windows exe. Development moved from SourceForge to GitHub in 2021 after sixteen years, and the code is licensed GPL-2.0-or-later.
