Hi Danielo,
It's a very interesting piece of TiddlyWiki sync technology.
Some questions / remarks:
1. I think it is not necessarily clear to everyone, that they can just
take your published version
download it and put it somewhere else and it would still do the thing
- in other words, that there is no dependency to
noteself.github.io/online whatsoever
- so, there are no passwords stored "there" ...it's all in the
browsers cache or localStorage
- perhaps add to the FAQ "Where is my password stored?"
- your github page is simply just a starting point you could even use
productively
- this is admittedly a bit confusing
- in other words, a user can ad-hoc hook their couchDB,
pull the tiddlers into your site and work with it
- this is where it differs from TiddlySpot... you could simply
push any tiddlywiki up there,
but at some point you want to start working off of that url
- with Noteself, you can pull your couchDB stored tiddles into any
noteself anywhere,
one by one, revisions and all
- however, what if I wanted my own flavours (themes, plugins,
etc...)?
- or even an entirely pre-baked version that looks totally
different?
- perhaps you can make it slightly more clear, that noteself is
but an application layer
that can pull and push a batch of tiddlers, not an entire wiki
- however, that brings me to a question
2. What if I downloaded your version, "made it mine", different
styles, plugins, etc...
upload my "modified noteself", incl. its system tiddlers somewhere else
and then started using it... which tiddlers would get synced to couchDB
and why?
3. Somewhat in a similar line of thought, how does one upgrade (a)
noteself?
4. What prevents you from publishing Noteself as a syncer plugin?
- I think that would make its nature much clearer,
as but one, albeit exemplary, of a potentially big number of sync
modules
5. What I would find highly interesting was the capability
to sync multiple noteself "tiddler collections" in the same wiki
- some from that couchDB and / or table, some from another (e.g. a
template)
- besides versions, this would clearly be a capability that
TiddlySpot cannot deliver
6. as for revisions, there are two things
1. the icon could more gracefully look like a core thing, right now I
find it a bit imposing
2. the actual revision handling feels very confusing to me
- tbh., I have no clue how to get back to an earlier revision
- what's most confusing though, I don't see a date for revisions
anywhere, just cryptic numbers...
that's not very usefull to figuring out a past version to revert to
- What is the meaning of those tabs?
Best wishes,
Tobias.
