Hi Josh If I'm understanding correctly, you'd like to be able to sync a wiki folder using a service like OwnCloud so that you can run the Node.js configuration on different machines, is that right?
That's possible, but requires some care: the filesystemadaptor module that handles syncing to the filesystem only works one way - it doesn't dynamically pick up changes made externally to the file system. So if you edit .tid files directly then you'll need to restart the server to see the effect in the browser. So, the OwnCloud scenario requires you to make sure that only one instance of TiddlyWiki is running at any given time.
