This maybe a very odd edge case, I was curious if anyone attempted to embed TiddlyWiki(5) into an existing web site. What I mean is separate the tiddlers from the presentation code.
Specifications: - Allow a site to include one JavaScript library as a framework. - Load the tiddlers from an external JSON resource (XmlHttpRequest). - Render a chosen tiddler in a predefined DIV. That DIV would act as a canvas for opening subsequent tiddlers. - Offer other linkins to provide controls (like the right side menu in TW5) in a chosen or self crafted layout. - When the user attempts to download an offline copy it merges the tiddlers into a standard TW5 html document. Why? The thought occurred to me that information on the web although useful is subject to freedom of speech or lack thereof. With an option to download your own copy of a site all the content would then be distributed protecting the content from the central point of failure and allow it to live on regardless of any loss of the central server. One use case could be a documentation site who offers the latest up-to-date but users can download the offline version for when they lose internet or if the main site were to go down. And the ability to split content into mini pages (tiddlers) without the need to link to an external site (wikipedia) or load a new page. Also embedded content like images and such. Personally I have a static blog site (Jekyll) and like the style of writing where the main content has links to mini content like definitions to terms or expansions of ideas without the needs to open a new tab/window to another page or lose the context of the parent post. Also the shared nature of this web of tiddlers is beneficial to the way my brain works. I would much rather read documentation or textbooks this way then the standard top-bottom-left-right structured way most linear documentation is written. Embedding the features of TiddlyWiki without having to change my entire site into a TiddlyWiki would be useful and cool. It would be like having the same content on the site also be part of a TiddlyWiki version of the site and the data between the two (including encrypted tiddlers) would be shared (write once).
