## Try editing and creating tiddlers
Add build targets to server edition Define for the server edition the same build targets as for the empty edition, but using the correct template so that the "offline" version (target "index") works correctly when accessed via HTTP. With this, `tiddlywiki --build index` is equivalent to the save button. While the process of setting up TiddlyWiki on Node.js is well documented and easy enough, the options for publishing such a wiki to an offline version (scriptably, e.g. for push-to-deploy setups) are decidedly non-obvious. With the added build steps, the user only needs to know three simple commands: tiddlywiki --init server tiddlywiki --server tiddlywiki --build index and optionally tiddlywiki --build static

# Optionally, make an offline copy:
Update tiddlywiki.com edition (#2454) * Change button texts to latest version * Move tiddler files to appropriate categorys
2016-05-20 13:46:11 +00:00
#* click the {{$:/core/images/save-button}} ''save changes'' button in the sidebar, ''OR''
Add missing wiki directory to command example (#2950) All the other commands seem to assume that the user is not in the wiki directory, but rather in the parent directory: `tiddlywiki mynewwiki --init server` and `tiddlywiki mynewwiki --server`. This is why `tiddlywiki --build index` fails. A solution to this problem is to add the wiki name to the command.

The `-g` flag causes TiddlyWiki to be installed globally. Without it, TiddlyWiki will only be available in the directory where you installed it.

If you are using Debian or Debian-based Linux and you are receiving a `node: command not found` error though node.js package is installed, you may need to create a symbolic link between `nodejs` and `node`. Consult your distro's manual and `whereis` to correctly create a link. See github [[issue 1434|http://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/1434]]
