Hi Josiah and thank you,

Could you please point me towards the work of Riz? I don't think I've seen 
it and it would be very useful to see what other people have done. The 
other work I found that was useful to me, in addition to Jeremy's docs, was 
by Welford: https://github.com/welford/twstaticblog

Indeed static sites are poorly named - the only thing that's static about 
them is the deliverable assets at any instant in time. In fact Tiddlywiki 
itself is usually delivered as a "static" asset but is, of course, very 
dynamic once on the client.

The main win for me in setting up the system as I have is that I now have 
effectively "one click" publishing from TW on my desktop to the Netlify 
global CDN, so my site has the same up-time and availability as some major 
sites (https://www.netlify.com/case-studies/). All I have to do is tag 
tiddlers "Live" and run a Git commit and the site gets rebuilt "in the 
cloud" in about 30 seconds. One more reason to love Tiddlywiki.


Regards,
Richard
