Roadmap

  • Prepare sample images for ease of experiment See here
  • Create GitHub repo
  • Build first (limited functionality) demo and host on GitHub Pages
  • Callout for skills & help
  • Explore for plugins & snippets which solve aspects of desired functionality
  • Build necessary interfaces & functions
  • Build a plugin to extend TiddlyWiki file import functionality :
    • Drag & drop image files & urls with...
      • Option to store files or fetch url resources to a local-but-external folder
        • Important to prevent the wiki file from ballooning
      • Keep reference to sources
        • Tiddlers to be named with the filename or source url
      • Ability to accommodate various user scenarios
        • remote-url-hosted-images
        • local-but-external-images
        • images-embedded-in-the-wiki (Possible but inadvisable)
      • Option to group related resource tiddlers
        • Allocate a group uuid to a tiddler field
        • Permit multi-group membership
        • Add/remove a tiddler to/from an existing group
        • Code to assign a friendly name to the group
          • Keep a list of {friendly-name : uuid} key:value pairs for reference
      • Capability to parse file names for date & time and subject matter
        • Facilitates sorting & selection
      • Option to generate & export the JSON pertinent
        • The current input episode
        • A selected narrative
      • Interface to auto-generate visual narrative tiddlers from a membership group
        • This is the uuid superpower
  • Permit easy editing of narrative tiddler
    • Backpropogate changes to source tiddler
    • Abstract away from the user the complexity of fields, uuids etc.
    • Drag & drop to rearrange elements of a narrative tiddler
  • Develop engaging data presentations
    • Tiddlers to auto display rotating narratives
    • Develop interactive guessing game
      • Present images
      • Match user guesses to actual tags
      • Keep score, how close were you?

And then...

  • Presentation mode
    • Iterate through elements of a narrative
    • Control the flow, dwell time, autoplay etc.
  • Screencasting
  • Morph into a distributed, collaborative, sharing, multi-user, narrative-led wiki?
  • Blockchain derived content licensing. Revenue to the creator?
  • A source of labelled data for machine learning?
