It would be totally easy to have a link point to the source of a component at GitHub. Also, I wasn't (yet) asking for minification and certainly not obfuscation. I was just mildly pointing out that I don't quite fancy the way everything gets stuffed and expanded into the distro. In the source code, sure... put as much documentation as you can, especially when we eventually extract it into some on-thy-fly-generated code documentation, hopefully, eventually. But, what is being built and shipped is not a developer environment, it's a distribution with a functionality... that should be optimized for performance to the fullest, imho. Again, pointing to the readable source is (or should be) as easy as 1-2-3. The other way, it looks like you are trying to hide something. > So, just don't make it look like that, point to the readable source, in an automated manner. > Also it could be a culprit to many people that explores tiddlywiki > directly on the HTML file version.

Also, I think we're only talking about js tiddlers in terms of minifying & stripping comments, not html. So, any templates are just as redable as before! The rest is for people knowledgeable of the core, imho... or those with the skillset to explore and modify it.
