title: How to Use

TW Bookcase takes inspiration from [[TiddlyWiki on Node.js|https://tiddlywiki.com/#Installing%20TiddlyWiki%20on%20Node.js]] in how it works. Much like how the ~TiddlyWiki looks for a `tiddlywiki.info` file in the directory you point it to so does TW Bookcase (`tw-bookcase.info` in this case).

The `--init` command will generate this file for you.

The `--listen` command will start the application.

The syntax for commands is:

```
tw-bookcase path/to/tw-bookcase.info --init
tw-bookcase path/to/tw-bookcase.info --listen
```

Once the server is running it will serve the main application which will show a list of know ~TiddlyWikis.

Each tiddlers title can be changed by editing the site title in each ~TiddlyWiki instance. TW Bookcase will pick up the change.
