It sounds like you need a wiki. TiddlyWiki is the closest to Twine (the first version of Twine was actually built on top of it) so that might be a good place to start. There are lots of plugins for it that can add additional features beyond the basics and there are premade distributions of it that package more functionality out of the box. It looks like tiddlyroam has functionality to allow the visualization of... Source: over 3 years ago
You can do this fairly easily with a macro in Tiddlywiki. There are even โversionsโ of Tiddlywiki that behave like Roam that are free if you like that format. Source: over 3 years ago
