How do you recommend running it? The install guide lists a half-dozen different possibilities including PHP, Node, Ruby which all look to be vastly different solutions.

You just download the HTML file and open it to 'run' it. Then, once you've made changes, use your browsers "save as" feature to save a copy. Everything is in browser.

Other options do things like public hosting.

Personally, I just use the HTML file with the Timimi Firefox plugin installed for autosaving the current file.

It looks like TiddlyWiki doesn't recommend that exact method anymore.

I use TiddlyDesktop and open with it the HTML file that I downloaded from the site. The desktop app takes care of saving the file when you finished editing a post and save it.

Sorry for the confusion. There's a button you press in Tiddly Wiki that generates a new HTML.

You "Save As.." that.

I would recommend just downloading the HTML file and using that.

To save changes, click the red checkmark, and "save as..." the updated HTML over the old copy.

Switch to other possibilities if you use it enough to justify that.

That's the save method I'm using since one year now. It perfectly fits my needs as a single user of this wiki. No infrastructure to set up, it works out of the box. As a former ikiwiki user I won't go back.
