Examples with Github Pages?
I was thinking about using MkDocs, its usually used for documentation but I don't see why it couldn't be used for a normal wiki aswell. Since It's markdown you can just customize it like if it were a wiki, and a wiki doesn't really need backend stuff so I don't see a problem with it
