Tiddlywiki as a note taking tool - Positive and negative aspects - Lets discuss

Well, fields don’t naturally nest. Tags can nest out of the box. Possibly you’re thinking of some other way of specifying the relationship between tiddlers. I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately, mostly in terms of links. In the end, there’s no reason in TW not to use tags, other than “tag space” becomes polluted with structural tags. But if you have a system that allows you to hide structural tags, then that is no longer a problem.

TOC or Tree that uses filters instead of tags?

You can try this. Import this into your tw. At the top of the tiddler where you want to use the macro put \import [[FilteredTree]] Now in your macro call, you can put filter: "[creator[JohnDoe]]" or filter="[creator[JohnDoe]]" (if called with macrocall widget) . filtered-tree.json (2.7 KB)

I just skimmed through that thread..can fields be used in a similar manner in TWOutlier ?

Data entry with any app is difficult for me. So I don’t take notes extensively that way, often using Simple Notes, Keep etc. for actual brief notes. But with the right navigation tweaks (font size, zoom mode, navigation buttons), TW becomes a good tool for reviewing existing material. I’ve put the tools for those tweaks into the sidebar to make the changes easy.

Check the home page of this wiki. I have created a dashboard for quick review and entry in mobile. It is still a work in progress.
