Yeah, I think ads can't really work well in our search + most users run adblocks already. We are still experimenting with ways we can monetise this project however in a way that doesn't reduce the value and quality of the product.

I made an open source search engine that searches her user curated mind maps on the web. Here is the search : https://learn-anything.xyz/ Since everything is open source and I can't run ads or add any sponsored content

I made a lot mind maps and then a search engine to solve this. It has been working pretty well so far. :) Here is the search engine : https://learn-anything.xyz/

Computer science is a very rewarding field if you enjoy it. We made a search engine ( https://learn-anything.xyz/ ) that I think may be useful for choosing the path with which you can go to further study.

Author here. I always wanted to create a search engine that allowed a person to linearly progress his learning and visualise everything in a way that makes sense. Representing information in this way is incredibly beneficial as it allows to

Thank you a lot edotrajan. We might add it so links open in a new tab. However I do like how it is now (it is the same as Google). The search engine is just there to get to the resource you need as fast as possible. If you want to open the

Oh I see. I think something like this has been done before and the results are usually messy. Although I do want to use algorithms and curate things in a more 'smart' way that I do now. A bonus point of doing it by hand is that I

Hey Gary, I love what you have done with find lectures. I use it quite often actually to find material. I am thinking of perhaps making a newsletter for this project saying 'what is new' in the mind map. What do you think?

I do link to wikipedia articles on nearly all nodes. I just expand it with more learning resources after. I think wikipedia is always a great starting point for learning about any subject. Or you meant something else?

Currently the entirety of the mind map was hand picked and curated by me. I did use the internet a lot though as there are quite many threads online that have recommendations on what the 'best ways of learning X' is. I also try to

The search engine for this mind map is in works and will essentially do what you have described. User types a query and it will jump to the correct place in the mind map. If you want to help create it, please do. There is a slack group for

You can also think of this project as an index of links similar to what Google has. Only instead, the index is human curated and it is an open canvas that all can explore.

If you do consider adding and improving this mind map, it would be amazing. Thank you for that. I want it to be a collaborative process where anyone can come in and propose a change.

Author here. I was greatly inspired by this website. It was my goal to actually combine metacademy's idea of solving the dependency problems of knowledge and do it in a similar way but visually.

Author of the project here. I do agree with you that mind maps have their flaws and limitations. But I found most curated list and most content in general to be quite rigid in structure. These mind maps should let the users explore and be g
