I am not a fan of using TiddlyWiki for creating “portal” web sites (or, mostly, any other kind of web site).
- (It does not suit me as the right tool for the job. If it suits you: cool. Please, let’s not discuss that here. Start a new topic of discussion elsewhere.)
Mostly because I like to create/maintain a portal with a WYSIWYG editor, and also because I like simple no-nonsense processes for creating/maintaining/publishing/sharing. Loads of tools out there that fit my needs much better than TiddlyWiki. Since I’m already deep in the Google ecosystem, Google Sites is a no-brainer.
But creating and maintaining (componentizing) complex information in a way that fits the “single source information” agile practice? Nothing touches TiddlyWiki. It is the best tool for the job.
That’s why I display TiddlyWiki content in my portal web site. Best of all worlds.
Example: Enhancements made to the version of wwwBASIC embedded in BASIC Anywhere Machine.
