Litmaps

Litmaps is a tool that helps you navigate the vast world of scientific literature. It allows you to discover relevant papers related to your work, generate mindmaps of the literature, and explore citation networks. This plugin can be particularly useful if you're conducting research, writing a literature review, or simply want to stay updated on the latest findings in your field.

How to use:

• Step 1: Start by asking the plugin to perform a keyword search on a specific topic. For example, you could say, "Find articles on climate change." The plugin will then return a list of relevant scientific articles.
• Step 2: Once you've found an article that interests you, you can ask the plugin to fetch more details about it. You'll need to provide the article's ID, which the plugin will have given you in the previous step.
• Step 3: If you want to see how this article fits into the broader scientific literature, you can ask the plugin to create a seed map. This is a visual representation of the article's citation network. Again, you'll need to provide the article's ID.
• Step 4: To view the seed map, you'll need to visit the Litmaps website. The plugin will provide you with a link. Once there, you can explore the map to see which articles have cited the one you're interested in, and which articles it has cited in turn. You can also discover related articles that might be of interest.
• Step 5: After exploring the seed map, you can return to the plugin and ask it to fetch more articles or create new seed maps as needed.

Remember, the plugin is here to help you navigate the scientific literature. Don't hesitate to ask it for help or clarification at any point.
