Dang! I’ve just very successfully distracted myself from serious work by reading this bit about Node.js and just having to experiment. And wow, it does work really well!

It also means you don’t have to use an optimised browser (e.g. TiddlyDesktop or Firefox with TiddlyFox) to successfully interact with TiddlyWiki - the node.js server takes care of (auto)saving.

The only downside is, the output is not, of course, compatible with Quine (on iOS); for that, you still need the optimised browser setup… Ah well.

And yes, TiddlyWiki is remarkably flexible and powerful, especially if you use scripting to generate tagged outlines.
