Edit the package.json file, to include the two items above, but leave the rest there. Make sure you don't have two "main"s. Main is already set farther down, so you'll need to remove it.

Does this require the node.js version of tiddlywiki?
There is no packaje.json in plain node-webkit. Where should I pick it up?

Dear @Arlen22
Ok, there is a package.json on main tw5 folder (the one you download from github). I edited it aso you say, and copied all the elements from TW5 folder to the node-webkit folder. But it does not work.
Here is my package.json file

{
  "node-main": "./nodewebkit.js",
  "main":"./index.htm",
  "name": "tiddlywiki",
  "preferGlobal": "true",
  "version": "5.1.5",
  "author": "Jeremy Ruston <jeremy@jermolene.com>",
  "description": "a non-linear personal web notebook",
  "contributors": [
    {
      "name": "Jeremy Ruston",
      "email": "jeremy@jermolene.com"
    }
  ],
  "bin": {
    "tiddlywiki": "./tiddlywiki.js"
  },
  "repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5.git"
  },
  "keywords": [
    "tiddlywiki",
    "tiddlywiki5",
    "wiki"
  ],
  "dependencies": {},
  "devDependencies": {},
  "bundleDependencies": [],
  "license": "BSD",
  "engines": {
    "node": ">=0.8.2"
  }
}

Copy index.htm and nodewebkit.js into the main tw5 folder and then specify the tiddlywiki folder path as the first argument to nodewebkit (path/to/nw.exe /path/to/tw5/).
