Documentation for LimitlessMarkFlow — the all-in-one Markdown + Mermaid + Markmap editor for Atlassian Confluence.

// 01

Overview

LimitlessMarkFlow is a Confluence macro that transforms how you create and visualize content. Write in GitHub Flavored Markdown with IntelliSense, create 20+ types of Mermaid diagrams, generate interactive mind maps, present as slides, and sketch on a whiteboard — all without leaving your Confluence page.

The app is built on Atlassian Forge, meaning all data stays within your Confluence instance. No external servers, no data transmission, no tracking.
