How to install Tiddlywiki desktop? [Solved]

#1 Post by danielson »

Having noticed the availability of a Linux desktop https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyDesktop/releases version of Tiddlywiki, i was wondering if anyone here had managed to get it going on MX?

Download the Windows, linux or Mac binary .zip files from:

Unzip into a folder and run

If i click on nw as suggested there, a window pops up asking which application to open with.

Sorry about that, the .app extension is for Mac. :p How about building it following this guide? I'm currently at work so can't test it myself at the moment.
Building
Run download-nwjs.sh to download the latest nw.js binaries
Download the TiddlyWiki5 repo from https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5 to a sibling directory to the TiddlyDesktop repo called "TiddlyWiki5"
Run bld.sh
Execute output/linux32/nw or output/linux64/nw

MX Menu Editor did the trick!

(usually, one would expect clicking on that NW would suffice to get the app going).

Sorry for duplications, was simply trying to mark thread as "solved".
