I very much agree. My pain point being that understanding and leveraging all this high-level syntax correctly appears to require unveiling a lot more concealed, under-the hood knowledge than a "trivial" js-script used to. Anyhow, I think I'll finally give it a shot, stop shying from plugin development and start fiddling with the basics <http://tiddlywiki.com/dev/#How%20to%20create%20plugins%20in%20the%20browser> to get the gist of it. In general, I have the impression that plugins... - mostly center around new widgets, extending widget functionality - perhaps js macros or macros simplifying widget use on top - stylesheet shadows to make it look right - language shadows for localization (, preferably dictonary tiddlers?) - configuration shadows (, also dictionary tiddlers?) Perhaps missing from the developer docs <http://tiddlywiki.com/dev>, what are the standards / recommendations for extending the system-tiddler namespace when it comes to plugin modules / components? Is the recommendation to simply put it all under *$:/plugins/githubuser/pluginname/*?
