TW / Cardo on Android

[Jeff]

I have flirted with using TW over the years and have actually started to use it on several occasions. My real desire is to use the Cardo Plugin and have it available on my Windows computer and on my Android phone. Both the concept of TW5 and Cardo look awesome. What has always stopped me is my belief that it won't work on Android. Tiddlyfox and AndTidWiki both don't' work or are abandoned projects.

So, what are my options here? Is there a TW hosting site like Tiddlyspot that still exists and has the Cardo plugin? Or is there a reliable way to get TW5 and Cardo working on my phone?

See my FileBackups FireFox AddOn. It also works for FireFox for Android.

Also see the INTRO thread: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/tiddlywiki/iAx4wT_s9d0

 - If you download empty.html form tiddlywiki.com on Android,

 - you just need to open the system File-explorer.

 - rename empty.html to yourName.html

 - long touch the file until the system popup dialog opens

   - choose "Add to Homescreen"

 - place the icon to your homescreen

 - open

 - There will be a dialogue, which app should open it

    - choose FireFox

    - check "use as default app"

 - done.

have fun!

Thanks Mario! I'll have a look at that. I appreciate your quick response.

Ah, And don't forget to activate the "Backups" setting in the AddOn config screen. ... It's off by default.

Cardo works in Quinoid on Android (which auto deals with saving). 

On phone screens Cardo is not visually optimal as the design isn't yet responsive. But it works.

Quinoid by Mark S. is a very good way to run any TW on Android.

Thanks Josiah ...

Quinoid isn't in the Android Play store since it's in Alpha or Beta ... but in case anyone else stumbles on this post, I found it in 2 places on Github ...

Jeff its a very good point.

Though readers here will know of Quinoid, folk looking from outside won't yet. They will in time.

Best wishes
