I have the exact same case as dieg: I used tiddlywiki for a while under nodejs and importing plugins via drag and drop.
Now with 5.1.23 I wanted like to install them the recommended way <https://tiddlywiki.com/static/Installing%2520a%2520plugin%2520from%2520the%2520plugin%2520library.html>, so I added some of the officials plugins to my tiddlywiki.info file, restarted my tiddlywiki and it worked fine. However I missed how to install custom plugins <https://tiddlywiki.com/static/Installing%2520custom%2520plugins%2520on%2520Node.js.html>. Just adding them to the .info file is obviously not sufficient and *I wonder how to download them*. Per instance SideEditor? Thank you.
