Is there a workable workflow that allows you to run TW5 as a server on your desktop or laptop, pack-up and move to Quine when mobile, then merge changes with server when you get back to base?

I have my server wiki on Dropbox so the tiddly files are available.

The docs imply that you can archive a server wiki as a single file, but it’s not so clear if you can go from a single-file wiki back to a server wiki.

I guess I’m really asking is a server TiddlyWiki 5 useable as a single-page wiki without too much work? I don’t mind having to do some pre-processing before going on the road as it can probably be automated.

I know that I could host a server on the public internet, but my current provider deson’t support Node.

Yeah, someone needs to modify the file system sync adapter plugin to automatically save a copy of the wiki to a specified location on server updates. 

Of course, that could be made even easier on TiddlyServer because the difference between the two is small. Which gives me an idea. Data folders could have a .html extension, which would make it seemless. 

Sorry, tired right now, so maybe this idea is way off :)
