title: How to build a TiddlyWiki5 from individual tiddlers

# Create an empty [[TiddlyWikiFolder|TiddlyWikiFolders]]
## Create a new folder in a convenient place (for example `~/MyWiki`)
## Create a file called `tiddlywiki.info` containing just a pair of braces: `{}`
## Create a subfolder called `tiddlers`
##* Alternatively, just copy the `editions/empty` folder from the TiddlyWiki5 repo
# Create individual TiddlerFiles in the `~/MyWiki/tiddlers` directory
# Execute the following command from the TiddlyWiki5 root directory to build a TiddlyWiki5 file from the tiddlers:
## `node ./tiddlywiki.js ~/MyWiki --rendertiddler $:/core/save/all index.html text/plain`
Reorganise the main file saving templates We’re introducing a mechanism that allows us to decide which tiddlers get saved. Using `$:/core/save/all` gives all tiddlers, as before. Using `$:/core/save/empty` gives an empty wiki. Saving an empty wiki from tw5.com isn’t the same as the empty wiki cooked from editions/empty because the two editions have different plugins and other system tiddlers. 2013-11-25 21:16:27 +00:00			`created: 201311242206`
