https://www.wikidocs.it is what I use. Very simple to configure and use and there is a docker image for it, although I admit there are no instructions on Marius for it. The docker image can be found here: https://hub.docker.com/r/reyemxela/wikidocs

How do you host documentation for your spouse or other users?
4 projects | /r/selfhosted | 6 Dec 2023

Can't think of anything that meets all the criteria, there's always some compromise, which might just be the way it is. For example I could 'self-host' otterwiki or wiki.js on a VPS for a pretty small monthly fee, which I could also use for other stuff that doesn't make sense for a home lab, but then I also need to deal with security since it's hosted on the internet. Or I could self-host and just accept that there's risk of it not being available when my wife needs it or if I die suddenly.
