Luckily the developer Dan Helfman generously shares the code;
http://luminotes.com/hg/luminotes
I believe anyone interested in ease-of-use issues for TW and anyone
considering putting together stand alone TW applications will do well
looking at it.

Also I believe while one part was Python ( the backend), the frontend
was javascript. I could be wrong, it is tough now because I can't
refresh my memory since the forums are gone.
In general, it was fast and simple, used simple buttons down the side
to get editing and function done. It was frame based like TW, but had
a simpler sorting of tiddlers (time or alphabetical). He was in the
process of adding tags when it closed.

I don't suppose you know of a site that still has screen shots of the
application in action?
Well, might be worth grabbing the code while its available. Maybe
there will be a rainy day. Python is a pretty cool language.

As a long time user of luminotes I was sad to see it go.
Luminotes is outstanding for brainstorming, brain-dumping kind of
work. Just click anywhere and type. boom.
No "edit mode" no CamelCase, no [[tags]], just a sharp tool for people
for people who need to put things down in digital form for later
recall.
I set up a Google group that I hope will help the Open Source Code
survive for those who refuse to let it go (like me).

There you will find a link to the Desktop version so you can give it
whirl if you wish.
Cheers,

PS: I looked at TW to replace Lum but I couldn't find an easy way to
import my wiki. I couldn't find any docs explaining the format that TW
expects on the import function, therefore I could not begin to write a
script that would do the conversion.
