You can add images and scribble all over them, as well as save links to websites with a download and some difficulty. There is also a plugin that will let you write your tiddlers in Markdown if you are more familiar and comfortable with that. The WikiText language is similar to Markdown. There is a WYSIWYG editor and formatting options, though you will still need to become familiar with the WikiText language in order to use more interesting formatting and customization. There are a lot of options for customization, as well as an active community that keeps the project alive and adds new customization options for different purposes (such as for writing a thesis).

TiddlyWiki is mostly used for task management. To summarize: this is a British, somewhat tricky to use, free and open source note taking and information management linked web wiki platform made in Javascript. “It’s like a hypertext card index system from the future” -Jeremy Ruston, in the TiddlyWiki intro video Regularly backup c:\tools\TiddyDeskop\Wikis folder say to your favorite could storage.Here at Commons Knowledge we like to talk about all of the various options out there for personal and information management tools, so today we’re talking about TiddlyWiki!. ![]()
