title: How to use TiddlyWiki5 as a standalone HTML file with TiddlyFox
tags: docs howto

TiddlyFox is an extension for Mozilla Firefox that allows TiddlyWiki5 to save changes directly to the file system. It can be downloaded from: https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/TiddlyFox/raw/master/tiddlyfox.xpi

# Right-click on this link to an empty TiddlyWiki5 file and select "Save Link" to save it to your hard drive:
#* http://five.tiddlywiki.com/empty
# Open the file in your browser. If this is the first time you've used a file with this name and location you will see a confirmation dialogue from TiddlyFox
# Make some changes to it. For example:
#* Create new tiddlers by clicking the `New` button in the left sidebar
#* Edit existing tiddlers by clicking the `Edit` button at their upper right
# Save your changes by clicking the `Save` button in the left sidebar

With TiddlyFox, your changes are directly applied to the original file that you opened in your browser.
