TiddlyWiki has an official Markdown plugin: https://tiddlywiki.com/plugins/tiddlywiki/markdown/

The site explains that 

> To add the plugin to your own TiddlyWiki5, just drag this link to the browser window:
$:/plugins/tiddlywiki/markdown

When dragging this link to the browser TiddlyWiki is running in nothing happens (which is probably correct, the site being served by a server - in my case in a docker container).

What is the correct way to install plugins in such a case?

I found it - you need to drop it on the very top of the scree, a green bar appears

Wpq,

Use markdown if you must but It is better to learn tiddlywikis own markdow language, and the features that emerge from there. I only say this because I know you are new, it may be your reflex to use markdown since it is available, perhaps to import current documents but it is unnecessary.

Regards
Tony
