In my continued series on the topic of MWS, we now come to the question of whether or not plugins generally require the server side instance or whether they are content to run on a client.
I mean obviously a lot of plugins are probably intended to work with single file wikis, so they won’t be affected, but MWS doesn’t load plugins on the server side the way Node TiddlyWiki does.
What plugins can I find in the wild which rely on running server-side JavaScript, or perhaps just set server-side filters for the client?
MWS is still going to support some form of server side plugins, we just won’t be loading the same plugins on both the server and the client, which in my opinion is a big improvement. So I’m trying to figure out what kind of service I’d plugins are currently out there so I can make sure there’s a solid path to making them compatible.
