@oflg : Have you already had a look on
A lot of the features are already there.
What would be needed is a more flexible representation/transclusion of tiddlers in the Map.

I’ve seen it, and the Echarts plugin. None of them can render wikitext on the graph.
Neat, this is a really interesting set of additional tools.
(I have also had a note to read through the TiddlyMap code to get wikitext rendering onto the canvas for a little while, but things and stuff and life. )
Perhaps StoryView is a viable approach.
Maybe use lots of wikify to get doms of tiddlers and insert doms into echarts. I’m gonna try this in WYSIWYG editor.
This looks interesting. But it is based on TW Classic I guess.
The Cecily plug in for TW5 has limited functionality I guess. It can be installed from the official tiddlywiki plug in library.
Again an impressive library…but should we discuss on what library to focus. This would be the fifth major visualizing library implemented to TW - only as far as I know I am sure there is more.
plus mermaid and some other more specialized libs…
Should we launch a discussion which is supposed to be the most powerfull branch?
Apart from this: Great attempt to develop TW in this direction, I have been longing for a tool like this for long.
BTW:
Here is a great demonstration how mapping knowledge might work (in german alas)
the tool was called IMapping and presented a mixture between pinboard mindmap and conceptmap.
It is now converted into Infinitymaps Example and explanation
It is also based on cards.
The following views are my own.
It looks nice. It would be better if it could have a relationship line.
I started a new thread to discuss some design sketches that show my original plans for Cecily in TiddlyWiki 5:
But to answer your question more directly, one thing that has changed since I did the original Cecily prototype in 2008 is that there have been a string of commercial and open source products that embody that central idea of an infinite 2D canvas onto which one can slide resizable panels, with pan-and-zoom as the primary navigation metaphor.
Most famously, there was Presi. Now one of the most interesting examples that I know of is Muse, an iPad app:
So, one good thing is that I have had the opportunity to play around with some very polished and sophisticated implementations of the basic idea. I’ve found that the original metaphor that I was attracted to is actually not sufficient to make a functional user interface. There’s too much scrolling and squinting, and the UI affordances don’t help with obvious use cases (“arrange all the tiddlers tagged foobar in a square”). Zoomable user interfaces have always been primarily concerned with navigation.
It’s still an area I think about a lot, but haven’t got to the point where implementation work has risen to the top of my stack.
Hi @jeremyruston the possibility to organize and present in a visual/spacial way like in muse or prezi? would be fantastic! Another great opensource-tool/library which could help to achieve this could be
Thank you for replying. Excited to see how all these will develop in the future.
Thanks for impress.js link!
I did a deep dive into Prezi a few years back, and worked it hard for a couple conferences, until I got frustrated with some limitations (such as: only one style for each text block, so no academic Author, Title citations, plus how long I would spend tweaking its effects to get them just right and not make viewers feel seasick…), and with the opacity of getting Prezi to respond to customers on such issues – even paying ones.
I’ll check this out!
Hello @Springer,
If you like impress.js, you should have a look at
http://strut.io/dist/index.html
which is a free online editor for it, developed as open source on GitHub
Impress is a very low level library. There is no “offline” editor library at the moment. So it’s very hard to create something useful. … But the impress.js library itself is cool, if you know how to configure it.
The design looks very creative.
Visual needs are always a low priority, so there is no rush to change and implement.
