Thank you so much for all of your overwhelming response!!!

1. Yes I am using javascript for my codebase as it extends the behavior of 
Turndown

2. Thank you very much for the suggestions and references. The project by 
@saqimtiaz certainly showcases a possibility of what my project can turn 
out to be. Sadly I am not planning on implementing a full featured 
round-trip converter yet, because there will be too many tiddlywiki 
intestines on my hands (e.g. macro, widgets...) than I could have handled.

3. I have started a code base on 
github https://github.com/mistermochi/HTML2TW5 for all of your curious eyes 
and eager hands (LOL). Join in the conversation if you have any suggestion/ 
ideas/ code to offer!

I will continue to post updates in this post shall i make remarkable 
progress in the project.
