aTbRef is a free public resource and has been online continuously since April 2005.
As a reference file, aTbRef is explicitly and deliberately not a 'how-to' resource, i.e. it explains how parts of the app work rather than how to employ those app features in the context of a user's personal work tasks. The latter are questions that can be addressed by tutorials or in the user-to-user forums (more on other Tinderbox help resources).
This current version of the aTbRef11 resource is baselined on v11.0.0b733 (released 12 September 2025) and includes changes up to and including v11.7.0b797 (30 Apr 2026). The web site of c.2,500 discrete static HTML webpages is created from 3,093 discrete notes and a further 518 aliases within the source Tinderbox document.
The overall document comprises 10,829 items: 10,829 notes, 173 agents, 7,310 aliases and 4 adornments
These items contain 468,540 words, and use 7,024 internal (i.e. in-document) link and well as 641 outbound weblinks.
The document uses 82 user attributes, 26 prototypes, and 70 export templates.
