While working on this, I realized that TiddlyWiki itself now also comes
with a simple server-side component using NodeJS.
I was wondering what the differences/advantages of using it are rather than
using TiddlyWeb as the server-side?
It looks to me as if TiddlyWeb has a lot more features but is currently
also quite hard to integrate with TW5.
Are there some fundamental differences that make one more suitable than the
other for a multi-user TW5?
As far as I recall TW5's server doesn't support users (or at least
not multiple users) at all. Nor does it support TiddlyWeb's concept
of policies[1], recipes[2] and filters[3] in any significant way.
Recipes are effectively the reason TiddlyWeb was created in the
first place. Since then things like serializers[5] and plugins[6]
have made it very flexible and capable.
