Dokuwiki personally, wiki.js at work.
I prefer dokuwiki and how everything's just a text file.
Wiki.js looks more modern. I wouldn't want customer facing documentation in Dokuwiki.
Second Dokuwiki. It's just too easy, flat files and it takes up almost no room.
I'm interested in what people have to say!
I recently copied over a reddit wiki to Wiki.js. I had to watch a couple of tutorials, but in the end it's really simple. It uses the headers for whatever you type to automatically make clickable links.
Is that common for wiki software? I don't know.
The only thing that I'm trying to decide if I like is the 3 column navigation. Far left is the top level subjects, then there's a second column of navigation for the current section, and finally the 3rd "column" is all of the wiki text.
I used Linuxserver's Docker container of Dokuwiki when I migrated my notes from Evernote a few years ago. It was easy to setup and configure, has a number of plugins that further improve it, and it did the job really well.
I ended up migrating it all to Obsidian this year, as it serves my needs better, but otherwise I'd still be using Dokuwiki.
I am currently using DokuWiki via Docker Container. It's simple and works flawlessly
+1 for Dokuwiki. It's simple and fast, has a flat file storage, and a nice syntax.
Also love dokuwiki
Been using phpwiki for the past 20 years or so.
Wow, that’s a blast from the past. I had no idea phpwiki is still around!!
I run Outline. Originally I was looking for a drop in Notion replacement, but it isn’t quite there yet.
I still run it because the stack was a bear to deploy, so I wanna get some use out of the product (Redis, Outline itself, Postgres, and MinIO or AWS). It is a good product, it’s just lacking some features that I use in Notion
I run several instances of mediawiki. Sometimes I curse the programmers for being jockeys (next to no usable documentation, every update breaks something), but at the end of the day it's easy and works.
When i figure out how to hide ip addresses from logged out users and how to implement the short url so it doesnt show index.php on my url ill finally be able to finish launching my wiki on mediawiki.
But yeah like you said there’s barely documentation and its really hard to get a reply on the support page
