Early in 2020, when I promoted Stroll as a TiddlyWiki alternative to Roam Research, I was interacting on Twitter with Connor, its creator. He said that Roam Research was definitely influenced by TiddlyWiki.

That reminds me, this one appeared on Hackernews recently : Web apps in a single, portable, self-updating, vanilla HTML file | Hacker News. The website itself (Hyperclay) is somewhat confusing, apparently the entire HTML file on the site can be modified on-the-fly, so it’s an editable HTML web, like Tiddlywiki is a editable HTML wiki.
But I find the discussion, which covers the various challenges in Tiddlywiki approach, much more interesting. Recommended reading. Oh, Jeremy drops a comment in the discussion too.

This is a website in its internal testing phase. The editable area appears to span the entire page. It is currently unclear whether it can automatically save changes while in edit mode (a feature not present in TiddlyWiki at this time).
Domino is explicitly inspired by TiddlyWiki, though it’s kind of a different beast in practice. Decker isn’t, but the web edition self-propagates in much the same way. And I could swear Kartik Agaram used to experiment with a framework for creating apps like that, though I can’t find it on his website anymore.
P.S. To nitpick: Twine wasn’t merely inspired by TiddlyWiki. It was based on it!

Thanks! Good catch! Almost forgot about Siteleteer, by the same author as Feather Wiki.
And it’s a lot slicker, too, but unfortunately doesn’t self-propagate anymore. It works more like Twine, exporting a read-only, finished document.

HTML files generated by Domino2 can be reimported into Domino2. The same applies to Drawio. This approach may be preferable to TiddlyWiki: published documents are smaller in size.
However, TiddlyWiki cannot achieve this because exported files do not reliably correspond to specific TiddlyWiki versions or plugins. Moreover, TiddlyWiki currently lacks a lossless export feature for displaying content.

Is this a tiddywiki? It would make a great plugin.

It would wouldn’t it! Any volunteers?
I am not volunteering but I think this could be a layout with a filter defining which tiddlers to include in that view, a bit like the original Trello look alike layout. Now it could be build with tw-graph.

Yes.
For folks who are catching up Domino looks like …
I suggest you start a > Let's Build It < thread to see how easy it may be.
Thoughts, TT

Sidenote.
Back-in-the-day, before Windows, some DOS programs already understood Claude Lévi-Straussian homologous entailments like …
- Have Bits::Make Them Visible.
The Domino is appealing for Simplicity in Solving That.
@Ste_W you might Do A Domino in a day or two???

The best would be if this was a possible look for TW5-Graph.
That is why I would like to ask: Have you followed this thread @Flibbles ? Would this be possible?

TW5-Graph supports fullscreen just fine. Having stickies like that would simply be a matter of finding a javascript library to map to the TW5-Graph interface.
I’ve got ECharts ready to go, which doesn’t support stickies like that, but bar and pie graphs and many others. There’s very little graphical libraries that couldn’t be mapped to TW5-Graph, at least in some capacity.

Could you map TW5-graph to https://fabricjs.com/ to produce a similar output… and allow to create a visual firework?

It could. Though I’m not sure exactly how you’d map the concepts together. If each piece of clip-art would be an image tiddler or something. It’d probably need its types of templates if you wanted to have scaling and rotating and such.

Having both vis.js and fabric would allow a great mixture of the best of two worlds: Preparing content in a clean structured layout and the possibility to go wild with fabric.js
The neat domino-look could be a great start for a farbric.js view that could be customized more.
Plus fabric.js would also allow notes on the board.
