Hi Arlen, Very clear explanation! As a newbie in using Tiddlyserver what should go in webroot folder? I followed your instruction step by step and I was successful to setup Tiddlyserver, but then I had nothing inside webroot!
Furthermore, how about other wiki if I want to load them through TiddlyServer? I am sure you have already given answer to all these questions, but as a newbie I wish to follow up the instruction and be able to setup TiddlyServer + working Wikis.
