Gitmbed is Public! Make YOUR wiki more accessible!

[Finn Lancaster]

 Hi everyone,

A while back, I posted about my new chrome extension: gitmbed, which, while not directly tw-related, I believe could be used to improve accessibility to tw from INSIDE online social media/GitHub. The extension can be found at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gitmbed/cbfjhpckapddemlmidlmgoepochhfpfi, the official gitmbed website is at https://gitmbed.finnsoftware.net, and the GitHub is at https://github.com/flancast90/gitmbed.

How can I use gitmbed with tw?

Gitmbed makes it easy to embed your tw inside Social Media Website Posts (Instagram.com, Facebook, GitHub) which would normally block embeds. You can make your first gitmbed by navigating to https://gitmbed.finnsoftware.net#setup, which all you will have to give is a URL to your tw, the height you want the embed to be, and the width.

While instructions for only Instagram.com and GitHub are given there, gitmbed, in fact, will work on anything where you can add alt text to an image. This means that you can use it for Facebook/anywhere else assuming you can add an image and alt text to it.

I hope it really is a help for all of you; a demo of an embedded tiddlywiki.com can be found at https://gitmbed.finnsoftware.net#demo, and, as usual, feel free to drop a star at https://github.com/flancast90/gitmbed.

Flanc,

Once again you seem to be producing another revolutionary feature to the TiddlyVerse. Unfortunately I can't keep up just now but I want to thank you. I would also suggest with 5.2.0 soon and Discourse many may have difficulty learning about and using your solutions right away, I expect they will be a "slow burn", so expect a response if not delayed a bit.

Thanks for your contributions

Thanks for the great positivity! I’m always trying to make TW better than it already is as well as I can; I’m glad to see people appreciate it! 

I’m thinking about perhaps making a how-to manual for my plugins/software, so that people can better understand how to do/use some of my solutions. Maybe this is yet another thing I can use TW for!

That would be great. Do try and write for the Naive reader, at most they have some understanding of tiddlywiki.

Perhaps explain why the plugin exists, what it can do for you, avoid jargon compare it to existing tools.

Then you can go into technical details and jargon later in the post/email.
