I'm with Ed, after trying many ways I've ended up with Quine(2) and TiddlyDesktop. When I was using node.js I loved some of the features but to me they were to costly for me. I wanted to be able to store my wiki's in the cloud so I could access them from anywhere and have them updated when I made a change. With node.js I haven't found an inexpensive way to do that with out having a dedicated website where the wiki's live and as a user I'm not knowledgeable enough to setup a website running node.js for just my wiki's.
With Quine and Tiddlydesktop I can use NextCloud or google docs to save my wiki's on and access them from my desktop, iphone, or ipad. I'm sad that Quine2 isn't available on Android so I'm not able to use this solution on my Kindles. But I usually have my phone with me.
