So I found out that nodejs tiddlywiki has a simple file server in it which can be used to store and link large files (images, pdfs etc). However, now the only "issue" is how to save those files into the file server itself. Of course I can just push a file there via sftp or whatever, but it seems convoluted and breaks my workflow.

Is there a way (plugin?) that allows me to save a file from my computer into the tiddlywiki file server (mywiki/files folder in server) without using external tools? Like, it would be great if I could just drag-and-drop a file on my wiki and pop it appears in my wiki/files folder. Or maybe through the import tiddler or something...

There is a proof of concept of a plugin that allows you to import binary files to the files folder:


What's missing is better error handling and the ability to specify a path within the files folder.
