Folks,

I was reading this Thread introducing  "New graphviz (diagram and graphs) plugin created" and I realised TiddlyWiki is a very good platform for open source libraries to be installed into,
to demonstrate their features and empower end users as much as helping designers and coders visualise and practice the relevant markup.

It seems to me while tiddlywiki enthusiasts take it on to "pull" such tools into tiddlywiki, there may be good reasons for there to be a market push from open source library projects into tiddlywiki.

Perhaps we could promote TiddlyWiki into these projects, offer them help in the Dev Forum (I cant help with this at this point of my learning)  and we may find a rapid growth in tools in tiddlywiki

Something like this
TiddlyWiki offers a way to deliver your open libraries outputs in an interactive tool that can work like a website or a smart document as well as making examples easily shareable. Of course this can then be hosted on a number of platforms, as single files, from your computer or device or nodeJS including multi-user versions. TiddlyWiki is also open source like your projects.

Graphics, fonts, computation, visualisation, tools etc...

What are your thoughts,
How can we make this happen?

This example of Graphvis in preview mode, with live updates, is an example of its value to a project team wishing to promote use.

But then users can build a library of graphs or primitives, in tiddlywiki along with arranging them with tags etc...

With a little effort I can see developing drag and drop into this as well. All features an Open Source community could use, their library, in a bundle people can take home.
