🤔 Why create Tiddlywiki APP?

The primary goal is to solve TiddlyWiki’s long-standing save issues. While the community has provided many solutions, what could be simpler than downloading and installing an exe file?

Secondly, what sets Tiddlywiki APP apart is that it doesn’t interfere with users’ Wikis or make any modifications - truly plug-and-play. I want it to be as simple as possible, allowing first-time TiddlyWiki users to start without learning additional concepts.

Regarding the blank version, I want users to experience 100% pure TiddlyWiki when first encountering it, rather than being overwhelmed by plugins. This might be why Jermolene chose to provide a blank version for users’ initial TiddlyWiki experience.

As for concerns about “blank versions scaring away new users,” I won’t discuss that much here. While I hope more people learn about TiddlyWiki, I won’t actively promote it, as currently, TiddlyWiki’s ease of use doesn’t offer significant promotional advantages.
