Hello all,

We have a option to run a trilium client without a server install in another or same pc, and change backup and db folder ?

Hello.

You can use the Trilium desktop application without a server without issue.
The database folder can be changed via the TRILIUM_DATA_DIR environment variable or you can simply run the trilium-portable.sh (or .bat if on Windows) to store the data in the same path as the application.

The backup dir can also be changed via the TRILIUM_BACKUP_DIR environment variable (by default it will go to a subdirectory of the data dir).
