TiddlyWiki for Desktop by using the Electron architecture

[Drake Wong]

This post is a suggestion, as I know nothing about programming.

TiddlyWiki is one of my favourite project and I use it everyday. But the saving process of TiddlyWiki is something very annoying that I must use store.php or so to use it. Another problem is that it cannot be used offline if I use it this way.

Currently, there are many many new apps using the Electron architecture which provides the similar functions as TiddlyWiki, such as Standard Notes, Uncolou, Skrifa, etc. All of them have their speical features, but the editing function is not as complete as TiddlyWiki.

But most of those apps can be used offline and support many different platforms.

So is there anyone who would be interested in developing a real desktop version of TiddlyWiki? Supporting device synchronization and so on can already make TiddlyWiki a perfect platform for decades long note taking.

You may want to look at the Noteself + Cloudant thread. As that looks like one way to work offline and sync when online.

There is also TiddlyDesktop. I think this is a node.js application (server-side javascript) that you can run on your desktop to save Tiddlywikis but it lacks cross-device synchronization.

So far I'm using Tiddlywiki like you, with the store.php script. I've been fiddling with running a webdav server as Tiddlywiki supposedly has built-in support for webdav. Webdav doesn't solve the offline sync issue but it lets me remove php from my server as webdav is native to the web server I'm using.

Good evening Drake,

I have made one using Electron, which I use myself, and works quite well. The instructions are rather simple, but so is the app. It should just work, but if it doesn't, don't be afraid to ask.

Also, if you are interested in another solution which only uses NodeJS and runs everything in your browser, check out TiddlyServer.

Enjoy!
