When used as a TiddlyWiki server side, TiddlyWeb lets you:

1. Store your tiddlers and similar chunks of content on the web.
   
2. Display and edit your tiddlers in more than one TiddlyWiki.
   
3. Have more than one person working on the same TiddlyWiki at the same time.
   
4. Create dynamic TiddlyWikis based on rules you define.
   
5. Create new and interesting server-based TiddlyWiki applications.
   
   

TiddlyWeb can also be used as simple framework for storing and presenting tiddler-like chunks of content.

TiddlyWeb is made up of a few things:

1. A web server. See Mount a Server.
   
2. A data store.
   
3. A configuration. See tiddlywebconfig.py.
   
4. A command line tool. See twanager.
   
   

Together these things are your lego to make lots of great stuff.

Or to Put it another Way

TiddlyWeb is a collection of Python code providing several services:

1. It acts as a server side for TiddlyWiki, providing (optionally) authenticated storage of any content, including TiddlyWiki content and dynamic generation of custom wikis.
   
2. It presents a robust HTTP API for manipulating resources in the store and an extensible system for presenting those resources in multiple representations.
   
3. It provides a library of routines and a framework for creating web-based applications based on TiddlyWeb and (optionally) TiddlyWiki.
   
4. It can act as a database for any content you wish to store on the web.
   
5. It is extensible, pluggable, customizable on many dimensions.
   
6. It is a reference HTTP API for other servers that wish to interact efficiently with the TiddlyWiki Adaptor mechanism.
