Anyone used TiddlyMap

#1

Has anyone used the Tiddlymap plugin (TiddlyMap.org | Wiki-Based Concept-Mapping Software)? It looks too good to be true :slight_smile:

Any links to TW’s that use it?

Haven’t got any links but I’ve used it a lot in the past and found it really useful. Always found it worked as it should, no issues etc.

The editor is not displayed in mobile mode.

Yet this is the only issue I know about.

I’ve use it in my genealogy research tool.

I’ve found it doesn’t play nice with a lot of other stuff. It’s probably worth testing properly on it’s own. Then integrating slowly or in chunks or something. Just my little and limited experience. It on it’s own is great!!!

Tiddly Map is Great, it has 90% of what I want, but for the remaining 10% I need it is extremely hard to hack.

I gave it a try for my bookmark archive (~4.3k tiddlers), I couldn’t make it work as I wanted (prob my fault) so I removed it. Found out that:

  • My archive’s total file size dropped from ~7MB down to 4, just by deleting TiddlyMap and its dependencies.
  • It littered almost all my regular tiddlers with its own fields, tmap.id & tmap.edge. Easily remedied with the excellent Commander plugin but still.

Thanks for your feedback everyone, I will progress with care.

i have found tiddlymap super useful for mapping in my worldbuilding wiki, both for actual maps of locations and also for charting relationships between people/places/systems. i used to use it on my main work note-taking wiki for the live view but it broke down when it grew too much (800+ tiddlers shown at once with automatic connections based on links).

i think overall it works great for small/medium applications where you want a node map showing some kind of relationship between tiddlers.
