Frustrations of Wikitext from a Software Dev

One of the issues is, however you define these terms they need to include the fact that they are “rendered” at “display time” and will update if triggered by a change in the “widget Tree” (may not be correct term).

  • This fundamental aspect of TiddlyWiki is like an interpreter, where its own code can change whilst it is interpreting, then its reinterpreted.
  • After more than a decade with TiddlyWIki I think we may need to stop arguing the details and just accept that its different in tiddlywiki. Such that simple macros gain a new level of power.
