I was trying this tutorial and felt stuck when Anne didn't explain the difference between stroll and tiddlyblink. Wasn't sure if stroll came out after the tutorial and she didn't update it. Or if the tutorial is doable without choosing tiddlyblink, and if so, how.

I also saw stroll might prevent tiddlymap. Are mindmaps possible in this case?

generally, I am still anxious about choosing a platform to begin gardening on, but TW seemed to have more support and development than most others, so as a beginner to gardening, indieweb, and programming, am I missing anything in my choice of TW? what implications are in this choice?

thanks,

Tiddlyblink  is earlier than Stroll. At least in the beginning the main difference was, that Stroll had the two story view.. David Gifford created lots of goodies for Stroll - and Saqs two story was new to all of us - and was and is very interesting. But also the main reason for the difficulty using it with 
Tiddlymap.
Tiddlymap is special nothing quite like it.
Anne found that Tiddlyblink was a fast route for her digital garden set up. But tiddlywiki is used for many purposes mostly note taking - but can be used for lots of things and have very different look and feel. Digital gardening tool is only one of the uses.

Here is a video courtesy of Defiant_Information from reddit that shows how to set up Stroll with TiddlyMap.

If you have further questions I suggest you post them on Talk TiddlyWiki, where you may also get input from Dave, the creator of Stroll.

@saq,
Can tiddlymap be used for digital gardening?  I remember a lot of questions about that subject about a year ago.

Thanks,

Could you clarify the tool Defiant_Information from reddit is using to the right of the save tool? Looks like an open book?
