title: CurrentTiddler
type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki

The CurrentTiddler is the current tiddler during WikiText rendering. It is usually set by the TiddlerWidget. It allows you to write references like `<$view field="title"/>` in TemplateTiddlers without explicitly specifying the tiddler that it applies to.

The title of the current tiddler is contained in the [[WidgetVariable: currentTiddler]].
