Michael Fogleman has written an Emacs major mode called tid-mode, which is for editing TiddlyWiki .tid files. It is derived from text-mode, uses the useful minor modes org-struct and subword, and updates the modified times when you save a .tid file.
He also wrote two helper functions for using TiddlyWiki in Emacs. The first opens a tiddlers directory in Dired; the second opens TiddlyWiki in the browser.
(defun open-wiki ()
"Opens a TiddlyWiki directory in Dired."
(interactive)
(dired "~/Dropbox/wiki/tiddlers/"))
(defun browse-wiki ()
"Opens TiddlyWiki in the browser."
(interactive)
(browse-url "127.0.0.1:8080/"))
This latter function may require specifying a browser:
(setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-generic
browse-url-generic-program "chromium")
You can bind either of these functions with the global-set-key function:
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c w") 'open-wiki)
At the moment, these are not integrated into tid-mode.
