Mat I think there is a bit of difference tinkering in tiddlytext and something widespread and future proof as html/css/js. Also there are much more resources, people had every single problem thousands of times.
I strongly agree with central place where to publish stuff. Imagine if there was a website where top solutions are promoted, voted up. Those would get attention and be improved by donations and contributions. Over the month with TW I kept discovering great stuff, just couple of days ago I discovered Tekan <https://ibnishak.github.io/Tesseract/projects/tekan/Tekan.html> by *Riz. *Truly amazing example of how TW can be anything. ––––––––––––––– *Riz *I am up for a discussion and feedback! I really want to help TW. Let me try to explain. Given that HTML is the target for both This is not true for me. I only want to publish some of my notes. It's important for me to also build a personal knowledge system. With the right format and organisation system Niklas Luhmann developed his "second brain" – the Zettelkasten modular noting system just by using paper notes. I want to achieve similar with modular human readable, file based digital notes. Markdown fits perfectly for this purpose, the format is universal, very portable, supported by many editors, systems. So I strongly agree with Scott here. Markdown is a strong original readable format. I like the idea of starting with Markdown (in some cases JSON or CSV) as a base data/model format and then add logic and structure with html/css/js. Next very important thing for me is the editing experience. If I spend a lot of time writing, I want it to be pleasant and calm. That's why I love Typora <https://typora.io>, a super minimal text editor, doing one job well – editing content. The editing interface is separated from my data files, I can change to another editor at any time I want. That being said, I wish Typora had some of the RoamResearch superpowers. And funny enough something like that was released couple of months ago – Obsidian <https://obsidian.md>. I think in time we will see more and more editors that are made for interconnected thoughts, complex thinking. I also wish TW would become like that one day – a tool that connects well with other workflows and not a monolith system (that is super modular but internally). I use VSCode but it's optimized for coding and not for writing. The interface is way too complex for a writing tool. Maybe that's another thing that I would like to see in TW – much more separation between building the tool/tinkering and writing, thinking connecting thoughts. It's like when you are driving a car you don't wan to see all the engines and electronics (while some people still would enjoy that). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
