admin wiki lets you create new wikis, restore backups etc.get a link to click to open the admin wiki which is created for you, and a message to bookmark it for the future.get prompted for a directory in which to save your file, maybe a port? with a sensible default filled in.download the application and double click it.The onboarding would look something like this: The user could set the application to start when the computer starts, and the wikis would always be available (and saveable) via a bookmarked location in their browser. Then gives you a localhost link to click on that loads in your normal browser an admin wiki similar to what you see here, which lets you create new wikis etc. One could add a GUI component to the application that when started, on first run asks you where to save your wikis. In fact Widdler already does a fair bit of what is needed. Releasing precompiled cross platform binaries should not be difficult, so all you would need to do to get started with TiddlyWiki is download a single file and double click it. ![]() Looking at the code for widdler, it is ridiculously simple to create a WebDAV server in Go. I am wondering if a similar but smoother experience could be offered with a custom WebDAV application. TiddlyDesktop comes closest to offering this experience but has its fair share of weaknesses including not being able to use one’s regular browser, difficulty working with local files etc. People either expect a software as a service model where the app and their data is hosted online, or the familiar paradigm of installing a local application and using it to create new “documents” etc that are saved on their computer. I’ve always found it problematic to introduce people to TiddlyWiki because of the barrier to setting up saving. Documents written with org-mode can be exported directly to html and viewed with any browser.A half baked idea to follow that I want to share before I forget: It comes with a thick manual, and a compact guide. Plus a wide array of life-management features. Now that the cloud sync is set up, you can use any editor for writing the wiki. You can download it here where you'll also find instructions on how to make your own portable versionįor the home computer, you can use the official Google Drive app, which is also available for most smartphones. You can choose which folders to sync from Google DriveĮdit: Since SyncDocs is not free, the next most useful alternative is a portable version of Google Drive.It also has a portable version for USB drives which you can find if you scroll down the download page.It can be installed without administrator privileges.It is a tool that syncs your documents with Google Drive. I had basically the same issue that I solved using an assortment of software with Google Drive as the cloud service:įor the work computer (Windows OS), use SyncDocs. Old version of this question on SU (2009) ![]() I'm not open to evernote as that's what I'm trying to replace.
