Save as interactive html #18

Great tool!

It would be nice to be able to export it as self-sufficient html page to embed in other places and to share with others, who don't have the tool installed.

exporting as SVG works, but the content is not interactive

When I want the interactive html version I use kmdoc, which is an another project of mine. You can see it in action here.

That can be an option, if it is easy to use and if it creates a single file, which can be sent to others or embedded in other html pages. Is it possible to have a menu item: "export as HTML", which produces a page like this or interactive graph?

To implement this we would need to package the app scripts and styles into single html file. Though it is doable I am not convinced the effort worth the benefits.

OK. I like your tool to produce high-level interactive documents but I do not have a way to publish my work to my colleagues. Currently I publish a picture of the mindmap and a link to markdown text, but non interactive mindmap is not very useful and huge markdown with lots of nested headers is hard to navigate. Interactive mindmap would solve this problem, but in order to distribute it I need it in a single file. It can be single svg file if it can work (i.e. if it is interactive - can be folded & unfolded and can show paragraphs content on hover). Without this feature, I can use it as a helper tool to navigate the docs while editing it in Atom editor, but it is not that powerful without publishing capability.
