As is, TiddlyServer, is not what most normal users would call a "desktop app". Its an assemblage of stuff that medium to advanced level "DIY users" can cope with. Its not for Joe Bloggs who would have to go through sagas to get it running to experience what TiddlyWiki can do. *That's a non-runner for "newbies", IMO*.
Arlen's work is one reliable way to keep TiddlyWiki usable *beyond the death of simple in-browser overwrite saving* and I think is very good. Over in the thread Should TiddlyServer include TiddlyWiki and Node? <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/tiddlywiki/WGuZtO8YkDc> Arlen seeks feedback on the idea of making it simpler. There is no feedback yet. The thought there is that TiddlyServer has as little cruft as possible. IMO that would bring it closer to a "desktop app." Its still gonna be a bit of a saga for most "newbies", but better than to do the npm route that is, IMO, seriously alien land for Joe Bloggs. My two cents.
