Gollum VS Dokuwiki

(Gollum)[https://github.com/gollum/gollum] can do that but that's a wiki.

Fun to see this on HN! I originally created Gollum to power GitHub's wiki system and wanted to see if we could use Git to make our wikis more powerful AND more open. I thought it would be cool if you could just clone your GitHub wiki and modify it locally or export it to some other system if you needed, or have it all locally for an airplane trip without wifi.

Another interesting thing is that I used my Readme Driven Development method to develop it, which you can see in the Readme of the first commit: https://github.com/gollum/gollum/commit/c7875704971be998a539.... I wrote it before writing a single line of code and found it worked nicely to figure out the API and feel out the ergonomics of the text format. More on that approach here: https://tom.preston-werner.com/2010/08/23/readme-driven-deve...

Glad to see the project alive and well!

Instead of SQLite I would prefer if you stored the snippets in a git repo like Gollum or Gitit.

I use Gollum for my note-taking and planning, and that lets me edit everything in Vim, use git for version control, and use any of a number of standard markup languages that have good Vim support.

TL;DR - Gollum wiki using Vimwiki's home directory.

DokuWiki is an open source wiki engine program that runs in a PHP environment. No need database.https://github.com/splitbrain/dokuwiki

Haven't seen Dokuwiki mentioned here and it's brilliant.

I use a locally hosted DokuWiki instance for all my dnd work. I used to use OneNote but found it too buggy to rely on, despite the fact that when it did work, it worked great. Plus I hate relying on the cloud connection, I'd rather own all my data.

Up until last year I was using LibreOffice Writer and Calligra Writer for writing, and a local install of DokuWiki for content management and web layout / outlining. Spellcheck and style tree were the main benefits of using LibreOffice, and it also other advantages in being 1.- fully offline and 2.- open source.

We have tried several approaches and systems for managing informational documents, working instructions, procedures, etc. and ultimately settled for a wiki system, using Dokuwiki.

There's also opensource options like DocuWiki
