In their own words
TiddlyWiki
TiddlyWiki is a free, non-linear notebook and interactive wiki for organizing and sharing notes, to-do lists, projects, and websites. It stores information in small units called tiddlers, which can be linked and grouped with tags, lists, and macros. Search spans tiddlers and supports filtering system and shadow tiddlers. In its single-file form, the data and code are held in one HTML file that runs in a browser without installation or external dependencies. Users can import material from files or other TiddlyWiki windows, and extend a wiki with plugins, themes, colour palettes, widgets, and macros. It can also run as a Node.js application; that setup offers more capability but takes more technical knowledge to set up and maintain. Saving choices vary, including storage and sync options such as Google Drive, iCloud, Dropbox, and Syncthing. The built-in encryption for single-file wikis has not undergone rigorous third-party testing. TiddlyWiki is available across web, mobile, desktop, and self-hosted setups.
