I guess its working. I can see images from the files folder in my wiki. Thank you @oeyoews . Great job.
I tried with an empty folder in onedrive and its working. But I was unable to delete the such wikis stored in the onedrive folder from the tiddlywiki app using the inbuilt delete option
@oeyoews any new features being planned for the app. I will now start using this app daily and will report any issues I face. Currently I don’t have much suggestions to make.
I think you should make a new post to announce the release of this app so that it reach a wider audience.
Also it will be useful to many beginners if this app is added to the recommended list in the tiddlywiki.com Hope some core developers look into this matter (I am pinging @pmario so that the core team is aware of this new app)

- I am finding some issues with keyboard shortcuts in editor like cmd+V for pastinhg copied text
- Suppose I close the app in mac using close button and I try to reopen the app by clicking the app icon in the dock. The app won’t open unless I quit the app by using the right click menu
Could you tell me specifically what the problem is?
This is indeed the design at present, singleton mode
If MWS is officially launched, I might try to support it in the app, but I’m not sure about the workload.
For a new note-taking app, the first thing I did was to try to click everywhere and check every function to determine whether it is my ideal type and whether it is the app I want. But I am really not sure how many people here like to use this app. Maybe some veterans are already used to their previous usage. The only thing I can think of is that it is more friendly to novices.
Actually the app is still missing an app logo. I’m not sure if anyone can help make a more modern logo for this app. I don’t have any good ideas at the moment.
This is definitely a big relief for new users. They just have to install an app and can start using node js version of Tiddlywiki with option to export as html file (also to import multiple wikis)
- Will it be good to have a dashboard for all the wikis in the app and do actions like import and delete from the dashboard rather than using context menu.
- Using tabs for opening multiple wikis at the same time is feasible ?
- Finally is it possible to do a global search through all the wikis from the dashboard?
I was not able to paste in the editor by using cmd+V. I will recheck in tiddlywiki.com to confirm this.
Finally what does the revision and bag fields do in a tiddler ?

I rechecked this. Using cmd+V in tiddlywiki.com and my custom wiki in a browser is working. But not in the app.
This is a feature that comes with the nodejs tiddlywiki version. It may be used to mark the number of edits. I can’t give a good answer to its function.

It’s a very intuitive approach, just like the multi-page tabs in browsers. However, implementing it here might require some additional work, at least I haven’t found a very good way to implement it yet. I just improved the appearance of the recent wikis display. If a wiki has been launched, you can see it here visually.
There is a problem with the OS “light” theme and the yellow icons. They have very low contrast. So they are not visible enough. See (1)
I also do not understand why the “Export as Single File” has a “wrench” icon (2). “Wrench” is usually used for configuration or settings. So that’s a bit confusing.
How is the reasoning for the icon colours? Eg: in the screenshot above the “file based” icons have 2 different colours. “Open Existing Wiki” is blue. and "Create … " Is yellow. That’s not consistent.
The icons in the “View” menu are blue and red? IMO if colours have no distinct meaning, there should be no colour. I think black and white icons would be fine.
The icons are just experimental. The reason why they are a little unreasonable is that some menu names have changed and have not been adapted in time. If the icon effect is not good, you can also turn off the icon directly in the settings
Some icons do have two sets of black and light icons
I am more focused on functional development now, so I have limited time to invest in UI
The whole electron setup needs about 320MB on my Windows system.
From my point of view saving 12MB of harddisk space, by removing the TW core editions, does not make too much sense. Especially since it means, that you did create a “hard fork” of the tiddlywiki project.
The app implements a “Create Wiki from Template” option, which contains “non core” editions. So why was it needed, that the core editions are gone and not accessible anymore?
IMO the TW-documentation would have been useful.
Where do the “template editions” come from, when the app menu functions are executed?

The template uses the address of an online link. If a user uses a template, the template will be cached on the user’s computer disk. There is a cache expiration time by default.
I rarely see anyone using the editions that come with tiddlywiki, and it is even more impossible not to use them here.
12M is relative to the compressed size. I remember that the actual size of these editions is 25.6M. Although the size of electron package is nearly 90M. After decompression, it is 320M (this is a common problem of electron app). But if it is possible, why can’t I make it smaller?
Making it smaller is not the problem. For me the problem is, that technically it is a “fork”. So it is not the same as if installed with npm install tiddlywiki.
For me as a user it is not clear, where the templates come from. Every additional 3rd party URL adds a vector for a supply chain attack. I personally do have security concerns.

If I don’t create a fork, I can add a script to delete these files before packaging the app, thus preventing these files from being packaged.
