Dokuwiki VS Snipe IT

Dokuwiki for Documentation

I have used DokuWiki in few personal and work (non-gamedev) projects. Seems to work well. https://www.dokuwiki.org/

While considering alternatives, I thought about DokuWiki, which looks like an unlikely solution, and Nextcloud, which I've already used in the past. Both seem a good option in their own right, though I favor Nextcloud because it's a more direct approach. However, I'm inclined towards a solution that's leaner and less bloated. Nevertheless, if any of those is the one that is most likely to solve my dilemma, I'm open towards using any of those two. I'm also investigating Anytype.io, which seems like the best option, but it seems it works with an invitation.

FYI, the PR is https://github.com/dokuwiki/dokuwiki/pull/3798 if you want to read about it

The oldest and still supported software that will cover all your list - is: DokuWiKi It is web based, but there on site you can even find portable installation on flash drive. No database, plain files as backend.

I already have a Dokuwiki set up on my home server, which would make it easy to attach notes and datasheets to the various items. But I wonder if there are some purpose made solutions for this. Not too complicated or it won't be updated very often...

joplin or DokuWiKi

DocuWiKi - one of the oldest one, no need for database and it even has thumbdrive version

Also, a release candidate has been tagged, so a new version should be coming "soon".

Snipe-IT for Asset Management

At work I use snipeIT to manage our asset inventory, it's fairly quick to spin up with docker and it's quite customisable https://snipeitapp.com/

Another great open source asset management system to check out is Snipe-IT. https://github.com/snipe/snipe-it

I have used it for years both self hosted and with them hosting and it's been a great low cost solution for asset management.

If you like the IT method of asset management, then Snipe-IT is what you want. If you want something more inventory-y and parts-y, then check out PartKeepr or Inventree.

We use SnipeIT

I very strongly disagree, use serial numbers if at all possible, set up Snipe-IT, and you'll never have to change labels again. As long as you are the one handling provisioning, repairs and such, or those who do is allowed access, you'll always know the location, status and ownership of everything in there.
