I downloaded treesheets recently and haven’t roadtested it.

I can highly recommend it. I’m sure it can be used for many different things. I use it as a matrix-form outliner.

E.g. Currently I’m working on an outline in a Freeplane mind map, and I noticed that several branches ended up with information at their ends that was common to all of them, which suggested to me that this information could be better organised in a table.

So I switched to TreeSheets, and by organising the same info in a 9 x 5 table, I was able to develop the ideas further and discover new relationships. It is far easier and faster to do this kind of (brainstorming, idea-development) work in TreeSheets than in Word or Excel.

I also like that cells can be nested within cells, so effectively you can organise your information into boxes within boxes within boxes etc.
