TW LiveBridge creates a real-time WebSocket link between TiddlyWiki and external tools like VS Code, enabling instant two-way communication. Edit a tiddler in your editor and preview it live in the browser, or click in TiddlyWiki to open the tiddler in your editor—no manual refresh required.
The bidirectional communication features of TW LiveBridge are leveraged by other projects to enhance their workflows:
- TiddlyEdit (VS Code extension) – allows seamless editing of tiddlers directly from VS Code.
- rtiddlywiki (R package) – enables preview of R Markdown files inside TiddlyWiki.
These tools don’t use the plugin code directly; instead, they rely on the real-time communication channel established by TW LiveBridge.
