I’ve been playing with tiddlywiki a bit lately, and I haven’t been very impressed with it. I’ve been looking at some alternatives, because I do like the wiki way of creating and editing pages very much. And I found DokuWiki to be a very nice wiki.

• It’s light-weight
• It doesn’t require a database (pages are stored as txt files)
• It’s easy to install (just copy it to a server)
• It’s very flexible (good plug-in and template support)

I’m currently using it as my main wiki.

The only small drawbacks is that it does require a server running PHP. But as if you can live with that, I definitely recommend you have a look at DokuWiki.

So, is DokuWiki a worthy tiddlewiki alternative? Yes, I think it is!
