Function generateMindmapSection

generateMindmapSection(opts: MindmapSectionOptions): TemplateSection
Generate a color-coded mindmap section.

Returns a TemplateSection (pure HTML/CSS — no JavaScript) that can be appended to ArticleData.sections. The mindmap renders a central topic node surrounded by colored branch nodes, each optionally containing child items, AI-weighted items, and stakeholder sub-branches.

Supports AI-driven conceptual mapping features:
- centralThesis — AI-synthesized statement in the center node
- connections — Cross-branch connection indicators
- MindmapBranch.aiItems — Weighted items with data-weight attribute
- MindmapBranch.subBranches — Stakeholder sub-branches (hierarchical depth)
The CSS for .mindmap-section lives in styles/components/mindmap.css (imported by styles.css). No client-side JS is required or loaded.
Parameters
- opts: MindmapSectionOptions
Returns TemplateSection
