Easy method of setting up a static site?

@myfta

If you started using Tiddlywiki on Node.JS, then exporting to a static site is quite easy, no matter what operating system you use

Easy Method

  1. Create your new wiki (if you have one skip this step)

For example to create a new wiki in mywiki folder issue the below command from command window (shell)

tiddlywiki mywiki --init server
  1. Edit and add your contents (if you have created your notes, skip this step)
    From the command window (shell) start your wiki
tiddlywiki mywiki --listen

in browser open your wiki and add your contents (normally it is http://127.0.0.1:8080

  1. Export to static site
    From the command window (shell) export your wiki to static site
tiddlywiki mywiki --build static

That is all!

Now your static site is in mywiki/output/static

So, TiddlyWiki on Node.JS already has everything to create a static site, no hassle, no extra tools are needed.

Side note:
Gatha Studio in its new release has a feature to publish from single file Tiddlywiki to static site. There is no Node.JS requirement. I have not published it yet, It needs some polishing and documentation before public release!
