As someone who is not so new...

 1. No end user final apps - I think Atro means - "no or not many editions 
custom-designed to meet end-user specific needs" There are a couple of 
things for recipes, etc, but yes, there is a LOT of room for more things 
like that!

2. No easy to go documentation - I agree, much of the documentation is more 
about explaining the definitions of concepts than about How to do this and 
that. A few years ago I added some documentation for new users (a lot of 
the tiddlers from the Working with TiddlyWiki section of the Contents tab 
at tiddlywiki.com were started by me, and I did a lot of introductory 
tutorial tiddlers for my Stroll). But much more needs to be done. I for one 
would like to see a few non-techy, popular video introductions to saving in 
node.js and with Timimi, to be able to link to, to help first-timers get 
started.

3. No support for advertising - yes, this is open source, not a business, 
so that is on all of us. Stroll got a few balls rolling, and TiddlyTweeter 
should especially singled out as someone who promotes TW on social media 
(he is not the only one, but is the one whose activity I have happened to 
see the most). We need a few more champions like that.

4. Raw materials for developers - that is a good description, and I hope TW 
never loses that aspect. But we need to find a way to ease new people into 
it better, to lower the learning curve.

So yeah, Atro is essentially right. It wouldn't take much to change much of 
this. But most of us are either busy at our jobs in other fields, and focus 
on using TiddlyWiki rather than tinkering with it too much (I am one of 
those), or feel our free time and our personal abilties are more in the 
area of tinkering and coming up with plugins and new ideas, than doing 
documentation and onboarding (I am not one of those). We need to convert a 
few advertising and publicizing experts to TiddlyWiki, and maybe then we 
will get there. Blessings,
