I agree with this CSS-tricks article <https://css-tricks.com/the-whole-spreadsheets-as-databases-thing-is-pretty-cool/> that using *spreadsheets as databases* is a really cool idea. The article provides, as prime example, the service Airtable <https://airtable.com/> which seems nice per se but I particularly found their "presentational formats" interesting from a TW perspective. My take on it is that they were pretty much in a situation that TW is in, i.e "we have the data and can present it in any way people want... so what are those ways?" Seems they decided on:
- Grid (presumably the typical spreadsheet view?) - Calendar - Gallery - Kanban - Form In addition, they have something called *templates*. I don't know how these differ from the afore mentioned list tho...but there seem to be hundreds of different ones for special applications. There are also *blocks*, maybe comparable to widgets. <:-) P.S For anyone thinking "Wow! Why should I bother with TW when this exists?"... you're forgetting things like "100% open source", "total customization", "You own your data", "Your notes will still be available in X decades when most commercial services... poof!" etc. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
