title: How to build a TiddlyWiki5 from individual tiddlers
type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki

First install TiddlyWiki as described in [[Installing TiddlyWiki on Node.js]].

# Create an empty [[TiddlyWikiFolder|TiddlyWikiFolders]]
## Create a new folder in a convenient place (for example `~/MyWiki`)
## Create a file called `tiddlywiki.info` containing the following text:
##* `{"themes": ["tiddlywiki/vanilla","tiddlywiki/snowwhite"]}`
## Create a subfolder called `tiddlers`
##* Alternatively, just copy the `editions/empty` folder from the TiddlyWiki5 repo
# Create individual TiddlerFiles in the `~/MyWiki/tiddlers` directory
# Execute the following command from the TiddlyWiki5 root directory to build a TiddlyWiki5 file from the tiddlers:
## `tiddlywiki ~/MyWiki --rendertiddler $:/core/save/all index.html text/plain`
