The entry page starts with a video, and the header underneath says

Will output this markdown:

But what is it that will output this markdown?

When I go through the command pallette when in any note and toggle mindmap, nothing happens.

When I copy/paste the markdown from your website, I can make it work, but I don't understand how I can get to that view with my own notes.

add yaml to your md file

mindmap-plugin: basic

notice : the content of your md file should match the demo

# mindmap root

## node 1
- test 1
   - test 1.1 
- test 2
   - test 2.1

## node 2
- test 1
- test 2

Huh, ok. It would be good to spell out on the homepage that at a minimum, you need that particular frontmatter tag and value.

Compared to the other mindmap plug-in, why is this necessary? The other one just gives you a view that visualizes whatever note you have open as a mindmap. What stops this plug-in from working similarly without the tag?
