In afraid the confusing mechanism is a result of some discussion I had on 
Twitter that showing a new tiddler draft containing the template code would 
confuse tw5 newbies (this is aiming to cater to their needs).

This is a dirty way of obfuscating that. I'll think of something better ;)

BTW, each project tiddler created already has a delete project and contents 
button.

Yes, you got me there! I prefer keeping the sidebar closed constantly so this

I'm glad you like it. It's a tool that I use a lot so expect some updates in

[tw5] Lean canvas creator plugin

2020-01-13 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello all,

In the startup world, feel like the lean canvas tends to be underused. I 
think it is because of a perceived sense of difficulty in a managing such a 
tool in practice.

To that end, I've created this lean canvas creator tool plugin. It's 
convenient to use and lends itself very well to long-term archiving. You 
can create hundreds of projects and each project can have hundreds of lean 
canvases.

You can access it here: 
https://abesamma.github.io/lean-canvas-creator/index.html

Pull requests (a demo of your addition or fix will receive great 
appreciation) and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

[tw5] Re: Can we build RESTful-like HTTP APIs using Tiddlers? Yes! 

2019-01-26 Thread Abraham Samma
Absolutely. It's also possible to add a filter url query so you can filter 
what tiddlers you'd like the API endpoint to supply to TiddlyWiki:

e.g 
/pub/mytiddlers?filter=[your filter here]

I am still brainstorming how to do this but I think this would be an 
interesting feature to have.

[tw5] Easier way to tweak Sidebar background?

2018-10-27 Thread Abraham Samma
Hi all,

Regarding the subject above, I have just realised, after so long, that TW5 
has no easy means of changing the sidebar background (you can only change 
the foreground colours).

Consequently, if I want to give the sidebar background a BLACK colour when 
I shift to a dark theme, I have to employ this hack/tiddler and label it 
with the system tag $:/tags/Stylesheet every time I need to change it.

div.tc-sidebar-scrollable {
<$set name="cssVar" filter=
"[title[$:/state/sidebar]field:text[yes]]" value="linear-gradient(to right, 
transparent, black 5%);" emptyValue="" >
background: <>

}

I wanted to know how you go about achieving this effect using nothing but 
native control panel settings before I open a new issue on the repository.

Thanks.

Re: [tw5] Re: Using Tiddlywiki5 as a SAAS

2018-10-17 Thread Abraham Samma
Hi Cyrill,

Option 2 and 3 are interesting to me because I also have been thinking
about creating "data apps" that can be used to create mashups inside
TiddlyWiki. The Bob architecture might interest you. Your users can
subscribe to your wiki or other wikis and download tiddlers that they
require and not more than that.

Look around the forum for Bob.

Cheers.

Hi Cyrill,

You can check out my project . Currently it allows 
you to create a private library of personal TiddlyWikis in the cloud, but I 
am actively working to give it some social abilities as well.

Let me know what you think. There are plenty of implementations out there. 
It just depends on what you need.

[tw5] Talk Topic: TiddlyWiki as an End User Development Environment

2018-09-30 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello all,

I am planning to submit a talk to an important local meetup for Javascript 
developers (though attendees are experienced in all sorts of languages, 
particularly Java) in my area.

I want to make TW as an HTML5 app the centre of my talk, and show how it's 
enabling folks with no formal background in programming to create 
sophisticated apps.

I'd appreciate any quotable testimonials and accounts from such folk that I 
might include in my talk. How has TW impacted your life? Are you 
considering a formal degree/education in CS because of TW5? Or, how has TW 
affected the way you work, do business, or is it a business for you?

Input from professional programmers are also welcomed, but please 
distinguish yourself so I don't confuse it with others.

The theme is: TW5, a successful enabler of inclusive EUD in web development.

For those who are unfamiliar with the concept of EUD, see here 

.

Or download this tid file into your wiki:

[tw5] Re: Building "TiddlyWiki as a Platform"

2018-09-27 Thread Abraham Samma
Hi Mat,

I've actually been discussing with Josiah about Bob and Twederation. I am 
glad there are others who think this is worth the time and effort. And of 
course, everything should be for the betterment of the community.

Our primary concerns seem to have converged very closely so I'd be more 
than delighted to see what you've created and offer suggestions and PRs if 
I am able.

My only problem is the fact that Bob et al implementations depend on 
Nodejs. I'd prefer to keep things in a standalone file and I have reason to 
suspect a lot of ordinary users that I am targeting evidently find the 
single file form of tiddlywiki easier to understand and use.

Here's how I view the problem: my model is actually more concerned with 
streamlining the distribution network for personal projects and plugins, 
rating them and easily adding them into your wikis hosted in your account 
and vice versa. My model is more centralised (guilty as charged) and is 
more akin to a "product hunt" clone crossed with an App store (with the 
profile page being the store front for some user).

Your implementation is more like a separate app that deserves it's own 
space to grow, partly because it's decentralised nature might make it 
incompatible with Maarfapad.

However, all this won't matter much if there isn't enough interest to 
justify this project. I am running lean here so I want to minimise waste 
and not commit too much resources to building something that nobody would 
want.

Thanks for your interest. Looking forward to seeing the TW federation live!

This is great Jeremy. For Progressive Web apps that use a tiddlywiki, this

[tw5] Building "TiddlyWiki as a Platform"

2018-09-27 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello all,

For the past week I've been brainstorming a way to truly transform the 
TiddlyWiki community into a TiddlyWiki Social Platform that can really 
supercharge TiddlyWiki's visibility and adoption, as well as help kickstart 
a new way of sharing and following productive and creative members of the 
community.

*Problem*

Currently, the means of distributing, showcasing and managing TiddlyWiki 
projects are scattered throughout the web (tiddlyspot, github, gitlab) and 
divorced from the means of providing feedback, discussion (this forum).

While Github has an all-in-one offer of managing a community of 
contributors and users in a single repository (issues, repo wiki), many of 
TW's users are end-users and/or end-user programmers who might not prefer 
to open a github account, or would prefer a simpler and more streamlined 
way of making an deploying a TW project as in tiddlyspot as well as 
obtaining feedback and discuss issues (project specific forum).

*Solution*

I've created a simple wireframe to illustrate the solution: a complete 
social network framework for tiddlywiki that improves upon the tiddlyspot 
model. It has 3 main features:


   1. An "Explore page" or gallery page that is automatically updated to 
   show off TiddlyWiki projects hosted by users, organised by popularity or 
   genre or use. This page could act as a "social feed" for TiddlyWiki projects
   2. Clicking on a project in the "explore page" takes you to the TW page 
   that hosts a plugin, blog or what not that you find interesting. I could 
   implement a means for you to "fork" a project directly into your private 
   account (like github, but streamline for TW).
   3. A "Profile" page can be automatically created for you when you 
   publish a TW project to the network, to talk about yourself and to collate 
   all your TW projects into a single portfolio page. I could add a means for 
   you to customise this page. I think this is a great way of building a name 
   on your TW projects.
   4. Killer opportunity: You could also "subscribe" to profiles or 
   specific TW projects to receive push notifications whenever say "Abraham" 
   publishes a new project or updates a plugin page.
   
The main potential benefit gained here is that users who are unfamiliar 
with platforms like Github will now have an easier to grok alternative to 
publish and manage wikis online and build a name for themselves using 
TiddlyWiki.

I had originally envisioned this as an internal tool for Maarfapad. The 
backend will allow me to quickly build all this over the coming weeks. This 
is an ambitious project to say the least. I want to know if this forum 
believes it is worth building this as an open tool for everyone to use? Do 
you find it useful? Please let me know.

Attached below is an ascii wireframe summarising the proposed solution.

This was all inspired by another thread about TW as a platform.

Hi Tony,

Personally I've found it very tough to explain what TiddlyWiki and the 
possibilities it offers without confusing them. It would make a nice 
opportunity to A/B test on-boarding approaches.

The most successful approach I've had so far is to uses one-liner analogies 
(e.g. a facebook for cats). People get that almost instantly. I haven't yet 
found a perfect analogy, but here are a few I can offer:

   1. An excel sheet in the form of a notebook (not to be taken literally 
   but it gives an idea that is not just a fancy WYSIWYG notebook and editor)
   2. It's evernote, but for those who want more creativity control
   3. A more open evernote app
   4. A programmable notebook (my personal favourite because it is succinct)

I could go on, but I'll end here. Can anyone come up with something better 
that captures the platform part?

2018-09-17 Thread Abraham Samma
Hi Guille,

Thanks for the encouraging response. Encryption of content in Maarfapad is 
guaranteed by TW's built-in encryption tool (fyi I've already had atleast 
one user complain about forgetting their password to their TW. I could only 
sympathize :-( but atleast got a takeaway of TW's security) and only you 
can decrypt them. Saved wikis with password act as a second layer of 
authentication for your account's wikis.

The password for your account is hashed and salted before it is saved to 
Maarfapad during sign up, so they're useless in someone else's hands. HTTPS 
is guaranteed too unless you add third party image attachments or links in 
your wiki.

I am infact considering giving users the ability to make hosted wikis 
public with a single click, but I it still is a work in progress. We'll 
see. Thanks for your inputs.

I am afraid nodejs solutions won't apply to Maarfapad so you can't install 
Bob server. However, I'll take this as a personal challenge to come up with 
something compatible to Bob server. It shouldn't be too hard (as I proceed 
to prove myself wrong (>_<) ).

Hello Mat,

I think it would be much easier to just create a useful TWederBob edition 
(and by "edition" I mean a full file TW flavoured with specific plugins for 
a specific function e.g. A blog wiki edition for content management and 
external publishing) that you could just create and use at any time. Makes 
things easier on my end!

Let me emphasize something here though: while I could implement a lot of 
stuff in the backend, I'd like to limit that in the name of transparency 
(and reducing technical debt) and instead encourage these implementations 
using client logic.

[tw5] Preparing Maarfapad v1.0: Your wish list

2018-09-15 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello all ,

Thank you all who have taken time to try out or use Maarfapad 
, a private hosting service for your wikis. 

I am now looking forward to improving the service in anticipation of v1.0 
release. There are a lot of stuff I find interesting but they're currently 
partially implemented or not at all. Such as:


   1. Automatic backup to local folder option (without the need for an 
   extension) when offline or after a failed save to the online service. 
   Currently Maarfapad saves to the browser local cache via a service worker 
   after every save. This option can currently be switched off if you want to 
   use another saving method.
   2. A social sharing mechanism. A lot of you wan this "feature" though I 
   still am not exactly sure what you all want in this regard. Perhaps 
   something along the lines of a "Slideshare" like site for TiddlyWiki. Or 
   may be a WordPress like service (*WikiPress *)?
   
Feel free to air your opinions. I will consider them all.

Thank you all again. Bookmark Maarfapad's Blog 
 if you want to keep 
track of project updates.

Nope. sharing wikis was the number one suggested feature. After all,

2018-09-07 Thread Abraham Samma
Hi Mat,

As they say, sharing is caring! :-)

With regards to what I've created, it is a server service designed to 
manage a collection of wikis (currently limited to 2 per account only for 
now).

It allows you to save your wikis to the server, or deselect that option in 
favour of any other saver you have (so you can use noteself inside 
Maarfapad for example if that is what you want).

It works as a PWA, so you can install it on your android phone as you would 
an app and it will work just as well (with offline support).

It also keeps an eye on your wikis to alert you whether you if you're about 
to overwrite the most recent revision of your wiki with an older one that 
you may have modified offline. This change feed feature isn't available in 
other services I think.

So using your criteria:

AutoBackup: NO but working on it

Browser: ALL browsers, best in Chrome

Data storage: Cloud and Browser cache (can be disabled on the fly without 
disabling the plugin)

Dependencies: External Service

Encryption: TW encryption

File or Folder: File

Format: HTML

Mobile First: YES

Muti-user: NO, purely private

OS: ANY

Portable: NO

Version: NO

Works-offline: Oh YES!

Hi Tony,

I am really glad you find this interesting. I have been working on this 
project for a pretty long time, and given it's my first attempt at 
fullstack development, your comments are really appreciated.

Concerning the matter of sharing the backend setup, I haven't yet decided 
HOW it will be licensed for sharing, but share it I will. We'll see in due 
time. I think all code should be shared, for the sake of transparency I 
believe. Maybe by v1.0 atleast, just so I can figure out most of the kinks 
so nobody else has to 

Concerning the difference in value, yes I have been acutely aware of this 
ever since the first beta testers started emailing me about this. I will 
continue to experiment though to see if I cannot sway your hearts 
eventually 

You read my mind. Yes, we could ask TW itself to set up an environment to 
do a proper introduction. I will look into it and add some recipes to the 
demo.

[tw5] Maarfapad (aka TWaaS) v0.5.0 is live

2018-09-05 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello all,

Just wanted to announce that the Personal TW collection management service 
called Maarfapad  has been updated to version 0.5.0 
with features some of you might find useful. I've set up a blog page 
 for you to explore 
the supporting plugin (note it only works when the wiki is hosted within 
Maarfapad's domain.).

There was previously a restriction for beta testing, *but that has now been 
lifted*. All are welcome. Please let me know if you find anything weird.

Also, many of you had great suggestions for the future of Maarfapad. This 
project was originally intended to be a way to introduce TW to a wide 
audience. I have a lot of experiments to run to see what could possibly 
turn this into a self sustaining project and gain a wider following. The 
ultimate aim is to make TW as well known as WordPress or Joomla.

Thank you to all the beta testers. Please update your plugins via this link 
https://abesamma.github.io/maarfapad-blog/index.html. I thank you deeply 

Aluta continua.

[tw5] Re: Interacitve Product tour for TiddlyWiki

2018-09-04 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello Josiah,

As I have previously stated, placement of these hints is a bit tricky but 
not impossible. The API allows for some offsetting along the x and y plane 
as well as padding adjustments so you could *manoeuvre *the hints into 
place, so to speak.

And yes, it works best if there is only ONE tiddler in the story river. If 
you add more tiddlers, the CSS does not play well. I will try to see if how 
I could possibly allow for things such as adding callback on hopscotch 
events (impossible with JSON) which could allow for things like allowing 
the tutorial to go navigate to a tiddler via permalink. Needless to say, 
there are lots of things that can be improved in future versions.

Keep the questions coming please!

Re: [tw5] Interacitve Product tour for TiddlyWiki

2018-09-03 Thread Abraham Samma
Hi Andreas,

Thanks! I think it's an awesome & essential way to onboard new users.

The need for Hopscotch was for purely pragmatic reasons. It's API was 
exactly what I had in mind when I started thinking of creating this for 
TW5. I didn't want to reinvent the wheel (I might do that later using 
purely TW5, but I can't be bothered right now). I MIGHT consider making one 
using nothing but 'native' TW, but for now, I got this.

2018-09-03 Thread Abraham Samma
Hi Tony

Thanks. Composing tutorials only requires a valid JSON object in a tiddler 
labelled as such. Targeting elements can be a bit tricky but it is is 
usable so long as the tutorial's CSS plays well with TW's.

Hopscotch's documentation <http://linkedin.github.io/hopscotch/> explains 
the API very well.

[tw5] Interacitve Product tour for TiddlyWiki

2018-09-02 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello all,

Last night while creating an introductory tutorial for new tiddlywiki users 
hosting at Maarfapad I decided that the best way to 
improve the onboarding process for new users is to use an interactive 
product tour.

I have created a plugin that allows anyone to create a tutorial for use for 
their own projects in TiddlyWiki. It uses LinkedIn's Hopscotchjs product 
tour framework. You can try it out now. 



Find the github repo here 
.

Questions and suggestions are welcomed.

[tw5] Re: Material Theme for TW5 (still sort-of )

2018-06-23 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello JD,

First off, let me just say WOW to your effort to apply MD to TW5. Great job.

Second, though the app looks great and fast on desktop, it feels slightly 
but noticeably slower on a mobile phone (for understandable reasons; 
reducing animation duration to zero improves this somewhat).

Third, opening and closing the drawer to access tiddlers can get a little 
tiring. Most users would expect the drawer to automatically close after 
selecting something in mobile apps. I think we can improve this 
functionality for TW5 in general somehow.

Overall, this has great potential. Great job again.

[tw5] Re: Preparing for v5.1.16

2018-04-11 Thread Abraham Samma


Great to see a new version of TW5 coming so soon. Already checking out the 
pre-release.

BTW Jeremy, I don't know if this has simply been accepted as a given but I 
sometimes find it tedious to have to deal with long "Internal JS error" 
messages that overflow beyond the screen in other browsers besides Chrome. 
There's no way to scroll through the message to get to the form button that 
closes the error message. I've had to directly modify the way the message 
is created via the domMaker method to shorten the message to prevent this 
nuisance. Shouldn't this be something deserving of a more permanent 
solution? It won't cost more than a few changes in bootjs.

A screenshot of an example in the latest stable version of firefox is 
attached

Regards.

Yes I've checked out TiddlyClip. A very useful thing. Thanks for making 
this. It definitely complements what I have in mind.

Re: [tw] Building a scraper service for TW5

2018-01-19 Thread Abraham Samma
Thanks for your interest Andreas.

Xpath will not be supported for now. And no, everything is parsed by the 
server before returning it to your wiki. No browser messaging used. Spares 
me of worrying about future browser vendor support ;-)

Another reason for this design choice is:

1. You can possibly do bulk scraping operations across the web (the server 
will do most of the hardwork for you)
2. Simplicity (just drop the url that points to the resource to scrape)
3. Accessible to mobile phones because not everyone uses Firefox for mobile 
phones. So no add-ons there.

[tw] PSA: Please license your works

2018-01-18 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello all,

A lot of TW5's powerful capabilities stem from the fantastic contributions 
of community members. Code is valuable and therefore we all require written 
permissions from authors that allows all of us to not just use plugins and 
core code, but also to remix, adapt and repackage, or even sell, legally.

Most plugins for TW5 have a proper license included that specifies what we 
can and/or cannot do with the given code. There are many types of licenses 
for different purposes. Thankfully, you do not need to get a lawyer to 
write one; BSD, GPL, MIT and Apache templates are available online for 
free. Just copy and paste it into your plugin/theme.

Unfortunately, a lot of TW5 plugins exist out there that do not have a 
proper license. Some of them accomplish really useful tasks but would take 
a lot of time to replicate (plus there would be no way of ascertaining 
whether it is an original work or not legally speaking).

This leaves a lot of developers and plugin authors helpless because we do 
not want to step on anyone's toes so to speak. We want to build and give 
credit where credit is due.

If you're a plugin author, consider finding your plugin and adding a license 
now . You'd be doing everyone here a 
solid.

Thanks for listening to this PSA. Cheers.

[tw] Building a scraper service for TW5

2018-01-18 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello all,

Recently I have been experimenting with building an external service for 
scraping and converting web articles into readable versions that can be 
added into a tiddlywiki. For those who use Firefox's Pocket app, it is the 
same concept, just for TW5 instead.

I believe this would benefit a lot of folks who read around a lot but find 
it difficult to copy and paste entire articles into TW5. The wiki becomes a 
kind of human-run archiving system for the web.

The API works quite well. All that's left is to integrate it with TW5. I 
hope to share a demo with you all when it is done. Opinions and suggestions 
are welcomed.

In the meantime, have a good one.

[tw] Re: Formula 0.2: Functional computing & spreadsheet formulas for TiddlyWiki

2018-01-18 Thread Abraham Samma
A little off topic here (great work Evan) but the problem of licensing or 
lack thereof is an issue for many useful TW5 plugins, here's an example 
, a useful one by 
Danielo Rodriguez but with no license (if he sees this, could he possibly 
clarify the rights given for his plugin if any). 

It would be very useful for all potential plugin authors present and future 
to please include an up to date license for your works. It really helps and 
it is super important I believe.

This probably deserves its own thread. Apologies.

[tw] TW5 Maarfapad edition UI revamp: feedback

2017-12-05 Thread Abraham Samma
Hello all,

So far the response has been very encouraging with regards to Maarfapad 
(personal TW cloud service) but I've received a lot of suggestions from 
non-aficionados that the UI is a tad bit overwhelming. An interview with 
one user while she was using it showed me the extent of the problem; people 
WANT to use it, but are getting lost wrt to the UI. 

So I've sought to create a new edition of TW for Maarfapad use; it boils 
down the UI to some essential features:

1. Create tiddler
2. Dismiss all opened tiddlers
3. Show non-system tiddlers
4. Search access
5. Save wiki (to the cloud)
7. Show Maarfapad services in a modal box

I showed the latest demo to the interviewer and she agrees that it looks 
much simpler. Its also more friendly to use on mobile. I'd appreciate any 
feedback and suggestions from the community.

Do let me know if you feel if this DOES feel simpler to you all. Access the 
demo 
here. 

Thanks!

 Thanks Mark - I did notice that, and I saw the tb5 link above to

 My problem is that there seems to be 3 sidebar states: 

 1. The default sidebar when my window is normal size
 2. The mobile sidebar created by this plugin
 3. A strange "middle state" that is white that appears for a very small 
 margin.

 The behavior can be seen in this gif:

 An interesting (though nonrelated?) issue I'm having is that I use a 
 window manager (lua script running in hammerspoon) to automatically resize

 I have to manually wiggle the window size to get the new layout to "kick

Hi JD,

I was wondering if your plugin's latest version solves a problem that I've 
experienced when using TW via the mobile browser (chrome). Trying to write 
something in the editor on mobile usually brings up a javascript error 
(setting data to null). Is this experienced by others or is it just me?

Regards.

I think community members should consider taking up the challenge of 
creating new kinds of exporters. I for example use TW5 a lot to write draft 
articles for medium.com. I could very well do with an exporter that exports 
directly to medium.com

Information/knowledge in one place is what tiddlywiki is all about. Its 
basically a html5 app that is portable and that can also be hosted online 
like a normal website. As many have already pointed out, you can start by 
checking out tiddlywiki.com

You'll find tiddlywiki to be a great way of experimenting with web 
technologies. Many in here have contributed code, plugins and projects to 
this thing. I encourage you to not falter and stay on to discover more. You 
won't regret it. 

Welcome.

Re: [tw] A Rant

2017-11-17 Thread Abraham Samma
Usability for newbies is a challenge for TW5 users but it is not 
insurmountable.

Take my project Maarfapad which gives you access to a TW5 cloud service 
among other things: I've had some success with getting newbies on board by 
providing them with a simple *interactive* manual inside their wikis that 
takes them through most of TW5's functionality step by step. The fact that 
it helped even my mother (a person who tries to stay away from computers 
most of the time) understand how tiddlywiki works enough to actually USE it 
is encouraging.

I believe designing less verbose, more interactive manuals within wikis 
will help gain more users. Its kind of like designing video game tutorials. 
You want the user to pick up essentials easily and let them master it by 
himself using those first principles.

This discussion is very interesting! Thanks to the person who started it.

[tw] Embed Tiddlywiki within a database driven website

2017-09-11 Thread Abraham Samma
Hi Paul, 

It is absolutely possible. I'm actually working on building one right now 
myself; originally for my own use but now I'm designing it for eventual public 
use. I'm making use of couchdb as my database. I suggest you look at the source 
code for the put saver module to get an idea of how you might implement what're 
you're suggesting. 

Regards

[tw] Re: [INTRO] Tiddler Bundle Plugin

2017-08-17 Thread Abraham Samma
It took me a while to see why @TiddlyTweeter thought this was a big deal. 
It turns out, PMario has created a solution to a problem I have yet to 
experience. I like this; a brilliant prescriptive solution. Kudos

[tw] Re: Comments on an online service

2017-08-14 Thread Abraham Samma
I totally agree with you on that. Figuring out end objectives of users is key. 
You could say we are victims of TW5's success as a diy application. 

But there are still a lot of application capabilities that remain unexploited 
by end users because they find it hard to implement them for themselves (not 
all of us can make plugins). This is where online services can be of great help 
if they can successfully supply just in time solutions for our needs. However, 
one should keep in mind that not all needs may be profitable as you pointed out 
with respect to hosting.

[tw] Re: Comments on an online service

2017-08-14 Thread Abraham Samma
I find this the most compelling reason to have an online service for 
managing such such wikis (an edition manager so to speak). You could create 
different downloadable editions that are automatically hosted, backed up 
and made public whenever needed (e.g a blogging edition).
