STARTING: Newbie Checklist

[@TiddlyTweeter]

HOW to find stuff that will ease your TW life?

BASIC is instruction on setup, resources and simple getting started, read tiddlywiki.com

NEXT is seeing that MUCH TiddyWiki functionality comes through PLUGINS. These are being developed continuously. A lot of them do NOT appear on tiddlywiki.com. 

There are several GUIDE SITES to plugins, but likely best at the moment are ...

--- https://dynalist.io/d/zUP-nIWu2FFoXH-oM7L7d9DM

  and

--- https://www.reddit.com/r/TiddlyWiki5/wiki/pluginsandresources

 A smaller set of "Official Plugins" are listed at ...

GETTING HELP: To get help please feel free to ask basic questions HERE (allow yourself to feel dumb,TW can be tough at first to "get". It rapidly gets easier.) You do NOT need to be a programmer to get huge utility out of TW. It is just different than most software. Its flexibility is awesome.

ENTRY LEVEL: At a basic entry level for simply taking notes TW works very well without you needing to learn anything much. "Out of the box" its an Instant Notebook with complete indexing.

The two main lists for TiddlyWiki are this one you are reading now: https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en-GB&pli=1#!forum/tiddlywiki

And the Developer channel for tech issues: https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en-GB&pli=1#!forum/tiddlywikidev

If you on iOS then "Quine" could suit best:  https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en-GB&pli=1#!forum/quine-app

If you want to go through a development process to understand TiddlyWiki then the "DesignWrite" channel could be useful  to follow. Its for students at Suny Poly in the USA, but good to follow. They just started a new year: https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en-GB&pli=1#!forum/designwrite. They start out as naive students and end up TW literates. 

Best wishes
Happy Tiddlering
