Hi Steve, glad to be of help. The way TiddlySpace, TiddlyWeb, and the NodeJS server work is that all of them serve a copy of your tiddlywiki to the browser and then as you make changes each tiddler is saved individually back to the server, changes from the server also end up on the TiddlyWiki in your browser, thus we say they are kept in sync with each other. This is what we call "syncing".
TiddlySpace and TiddlyWeb were built for TiddlyWiki classic and I have not used them much for TW5. The NodeJS version, however, is just a copy of the TW5 files on GitHub and is used to compile standalone TiddlyWikis from scratch via the command line. Another set of arguments starts the webserver, using the same NodeJS files. So it is definitely built for TW5. :) TiddlySpot and TW5-in-the-sky-on-Dropbox (TWitS5-Dropbox) do it a little bit different. Every time you save, it compiles and uploads the entire TiddlyWiki to the cloud, not just the tiddler that got changed. The file saver mechanisms used for TiddlyDesktop, TiddlyFox, and TiddlyChrome do the same thing, but because they are saving to the hard drive, you don't notice it. The server version is also fast, and should be even on the internet, although I have not tried it. I have considered making TWitS5 support syncing tiddlers, which would make it faster. I'm not familiar with saving to GitHub, but I think it would save the entire file. There should be instructions tiddlywiki.com for using the server version, but feel free to ask if you have any questions. -Arlen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
