So I wrote this script Zim-Tiddlywiki-converter to convert Zim files to tiddlers. It's not perfect but it gets the job done. I would make a pull request and add it after Also see section if that's permitted but I'll leave it here for now.

Does Zim have an export feature? If so what format(s) does it export to? Ultimatly you would need to find a way to export the contents out into some text format that you could then convert into tiddlers.

Zim saves the wiki as a punch of txt files with Markup in folders.

@MoHD20, sry for being mildly bureaucratic. May I suggest to close this ticket and to make a PR once you figure out where to the reference?

Possibly there should even be a new edition for converters or at least a new section, maybe even under HelloThere. Because for people using ZimWiki or Evernote or OneNote or whatever... perhaps HelloThere is the place to go look, if someone is "answering" ;-)

I'm looking to move my current personal journal/kb from Zim to TW. Zim can export to a few formats, including markdown, so I was thinking using markdown as an intermediate format might be a good approach.
