TiddlyWiki5 is currently an alpha release, meaning that it is incomplete and subject to change.
! Alpha Release
There has already been a series of alpha releases of TiddlyWiki5. The goal of these releases is to test the new technical architecture and to explore user interface features.
Some of the features and fixes required before the beta is declared include:
* ~~Synchronisation via HTTP in the browser~~
* ~~Synchronisation via direct file access under node.js~~
* ~~Preliminary integration with TiddlySpace~~
* ~~Preliminary integration with TiddlySpot~~
* ~~Saving changes to a file URI using Firefox~~
* ~~Lazy loading~~
* ~~Better handling of binary tiddlers~~
* ~~Usability improvements to sidebar~~
* A decent ReleaseProcess
! Beta Release
TiddlyWiki5 will progress to a beta release when it is practical for cautious everyday use.
Some of the additional features under consideration during the beta include:
* Warning when attempting to close window without saving
* Use browser local storage to preserve changes in case browser crashes before saving/sync
* Multilanguage support
* Ability to ~~inspect and~~ edit tiddler fields
* Seamless editing
* Aliases/inheritance
* WikiText ~~table and~~ block quote support
* More user interface widgets, including: ~tabs~, popovers, toolbars, carousel, ~dropdown~,
* ~~Checkbox support~~
* ~~Search~~
* Tiddler themes and ~~wiki themes~~
* Text references: slices and sections, JSON references
* ~~Timed refreshed relative dates (eg, 'last modified 30 minutes ago')~~
* Encrypted tiddlers and ~~encrypted TiddlyWikis~~
* Facebook, Twitter, G+ and LinkedIn macros
* Integration with the browser back and forwards buttons
* Minification of plugins (JS and CSS)
! 5.0 Release
Hopefully, TiddlyWiki5 will leave beta and become a full release while we're still in the middle of 2013. This is the point at which it is declared stable enough for general use. It will continue to improve and evolve after this point, although constrained to remain backwards compatible so that plugins and content created for version 5.0 will continue to work into the indefinite future.
