Thank you! This is great. Especially for occasional dabblers in TiddlyWiki who don't have time to keep up with the traffic here or actual code. TW has been an amazing box of software Lego for a long time but it has badly needed something like this. I hope it can be extended further and maintained.
I had an experience a while ago that just might have happened to others. I went looking for a plugin for TW5 of something I'd used with TW Classic. I couldn't find it (never mind whether it would work still). Along the way I found that the half-life on the Internet of a lot of TiddlyWiki things I had bookmarked was much shorter than I might have guessed. I realise there was a big discontinuity between the Classic and TW5 but the impression of attrition and constant change under the hood and the lack of a reference like this makes engagement more of a challenge for people who just want to *do something* with TiddlyWiki. I know TW5 has a lot of capabilities that I've yet to discover, and I may also not be the first who has also looked for things that turned out to be built-in but which I'd overlooked as result of not tracking changes. A reference with instructions and demonstrations seems overdue and is certainly welcome. During the week I listened to a podcast of an interview by Jim Al-Kalili with Eben Upton of Raspberry Pi fame (part of BBC Radio series, "The Life Scientific") which may have some possible lessons between the original concept and sales to date of 15 million. Just making a product that worked was never enough. Getting something in front of a lot of people was key (story of the BBC & YouTube video), then building a community and a not-for-profit foundation with an educational focus. Getting kits and how-to information into the hands of kids was the aim and it succeeded brilliantly. Granted, the dynamics are different with a physical product. Nevertheless, the what-if that occurs to me: what if the Pi OS (Raspbian) came with some tutorial material in TiddlyWiki format and a starter kit like this? A YouTube channel could be a nice complement to this (just realised I've never searched for any TiddlyWiki content there). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
