Please note - my message was mostly about how tough it is to make this thing work if you aren't a javascript dev. Has this been discussed on this list before?

Re-reading carefully I guess it's implied by the line "or directly from nodejs.org" The rest of the page is a set of command line instructions, with specific notes for Mac or Linux in certain places. Not something you'd expect to work on Windows. I'll consider this set up - my wiki is somewhat confidential, I'm not thrilled with making it accessible from the network. > Do you have a requirement for cloud or net-based tiddlywiki?

On the other hand, a cloud service (other than one of the 'big three' that I trust to be reasonably secure and reliable) isn't appropriate The easiest net-based solution is TiddlyServer (IMO). > > I have read https://www.didaxy.com/introduction-to-tiddlyserver which is supposed to be the 'easy concise' installation instructions. Install node, install a server package, edit a json file, click on somthing or other that might start the server, then use a special bookmark to save?

It seems like the solution I want, except I have to keep my wiki in the downloads folder. Not ideal, but possibly workable. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
