BobEXE

Single executable version of TiddlyWiki using Bob.

This a version of tiddlywiki using the Bob plugin

It is packaged as a single executable so you don't need to install anything to use the node version of tiddlywiki with multi-user support and the other features of Bob.

• Tiddlywiki github repo https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5
• Bob github repo https://github.com/OokTech/TW5-Bob

Instructions

Download the executable for your system and copy it to where you want your wiki to be. And then run it. (On osx or linux you may have to make it executable)

The executables are listed here: https://github.com/OokTech/TW5-BobEXE/releases

When you run the executable it will create a wiki folder for you, start the wiki server and then open up the wiki in your default browser.

After that it is the same as a normal tiddlywiki running Bob.

The default tiddler has some additional instructions.

Below here is only developer stuff, you should ignore it.
