As a python developer maybe I could help with code, but I'm lacking understanding as to what the project actually does and how it compares to, say, a mind map.

How would you describe this in under 5 minutes to a interested friend or family member / layman at a social gathering? If you have the time, make a video, put it on peertube and link to it in your readme. It'll take a few hours or so to do it right, but it might help.

Thanks for your input. Really appreciate it. Yes, I’ll record a short video explaining the use case for the application. Have been meaning to do it for some time, actually.

A somewhat superficial way to describe the application is perhaps to call it a more semantic wiki; for example, the application allows you to establish semantically meaningful relations between topics (i.e., defining not only the type of relationship but also what role each topic plays within the context of the relationship). There is much more to the application than just that, but it is an example of how the application allows you to model/express a knowledge domain.

I look forward to the video. The project looks interesting and it could be useful once I understand more about the project and how it works.
