For WordPress and Medium users, Ulysses helps them to write and publish blogs in the same place.

Integrate XMind with Ulysses

Before writing, a framework of the core idea, main points, and content helps you to write smoothly.

If you are feeling clueless, brainstorming is a solution for solving this problem. Scatter as many ideas as you have in XMind. Based on this mind map, diverge or try to find connections between them. During this process, you might find new inspiration, and gradually find connections between topics. You may surprisingly find that this mind map becomes the framework, which you can use to trace the writing process.

Export the mind map as Markdown or TextBundle (if it contains images) files and open with Ulysses. In Markdown, your topics will be interpreted as headings in a corresponding hierarchical order.

It also works the other way around: If you write a nested list in Ulysses, or work with headings of various levels, you can export it as Markdown or TextBundle, and open the file with XMind, et voilá: That’s your mind map.

Write and Record Idea Anywhere, Anytime

Ulysses helps you to write whenever and wherever you are. Via iCloud, your whole library syncs back and forth between all connected devices, and you can pick up where you left off. If you prefer working on an exclusive device, Ulysses helps you to store them locally.
