Why node and not TiddlyDesktop? With classic node, you can only run one TW file at a time. Or you have to open a second command box and launch another. It requires steps to install node, and then tiddlywiki, and then to initialize your files.
With TiddlyDesktop, everything works pretty much like a typical Desktop app that you download and install.
