5th November 2024 at 1:37pm

These instructions require basic knowledge both of the terminal and of Git. There are also alternative instructions without using Git.

  1. Clone the code from GitHub with:
    git clone -b multi-wiki-support --single-branch https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/TiddlyWiki5
  2. Open a terminal window and set the current directory to the root of the downloaded folder
  3. Install the dependencies with the command:
    npm install
  4. Start the server with the command:
    npm start
  5. To use MWS, visit http://localhost:8080 in a browser on the same computer
  6. When you have finished using MWS, stop the server with ctrl-C

See Troubleshooting if you encounter any errors.

To update your copy of MWS with newer changes from GitHub, run the following command:

git pull
