TiddlyDesktop is a special-purpose desktop browser built on nw.js for working with locally stored TiddlyWiki files (both TiddlyWiki 5 and Classic). It provides a dedicated app experience for editing and managing personal wikis saved on the local filesystem.
Use cases
- run tiddlywiki as a native desktop app
- edit locally stored tiddlywiki files without a web server
- manage multiple personal wikis in one window
- use tiddlywiki offline on windows mac or linux
- save tiddlywiki changes directly to local files
When to choose
- you use TiddlyWiki as your personal note-taking system and want a dedicated desktop app
- you want to avoid browser save dialogs and manage local wiki files directly
- you need offline, local-first wiki editing across Windows, macOS, or Linux
When to avoid
- you want a hosted or multi-user wiki served over the web
- you need to run from a Windows UNC network share, which is unsupported
- you use a musl-based Linux distro like Alpine or a headless server without desktop dependencies
