I spent about an hour trying to set up a TiddlyWiki for a Zettelkasten, but couldn't get it working. I was overwhelmed by the number of editors available. I now use Zettlr.
All you need to do is to drag the orange “pill” found under “Updating Stroll” on https://giffmex.org/stroll/stroll.html onto a tiddlywiki instance, then click the “import” and “reload” buttons and you're all set.
I would recommend reading How To Take Smart Notes and really internalizing the information there, I started off way too fast and ended up with too many tiny notes. It takes practice but its definitely worth it.
Is there a tutorial you used to help your set up?
