[tw5] TiddlyWiki Use Case: BASIC Programmer's Reference

https://sites.google.com/view/basicanywheremachine/wwwbasic-programming-reference

The short of it: TiddlyWiki is awesome at this kind of thing.

  • One file to create/organise/manage that content (TiddlyWiki playing so many roles, including file/content manager), and one file that can be dropped into a web server for hosting, and TiddlyWiki looks no different than any old website.

Cool.

A story:

I was working on the BASIC Anywhere Machine, but I got a little side-tracked by figuring out what the wwwBasic implementation’s support for BASIC keywords.

Which I decided to note without fuss without muss in this no-frills programming reference with polish (looks and organisation) nary on my mind.

Then organisation (and a little polish-for-fun) crept into my sponge.

So organisation of, and navigation to, content primarily. Presentation styling just about having some fun with CSS, more about cognitive zen than pretty.
