What is your favourite selfhosted wiki software and why? - eviltoast

There are a ton of options listed on the Awesome Selfhosted list. I’m on the search for a FOSS option that I can use to document my homelab and personal tech projects.

Right now, I’m leaning towards wiki.js

    Bookstack is really nice and user friendly. It’s probably one of my favorites.

    Dokuwiki is simple and stores files in plaintext.

    I haven’t used wiki.js much but I’ve heard good things about it too.

    Another option if you don’t need to share the wiki with anyone would be a note tool like Trilium. It has built in support for stuff like mermaid or excalidraw diagrams.

    Don’t forget to setup backups for whatever wiki you do go with, and make sure you can restore them when your wiki is broken ;)
