Our great sponsors
  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • docsify

    🃏 A magical documentation site generator.

  • +1 more for Docsify and its Github repo. I know this subreddit is for self-hosted things, however I wanted to add Docsify works well with Github Pages (they host, you plug in your domain or subdomain).

  • BookStack

    A platform to create documentation/wiki content built with PHP & Laravel

  • I've started the scoping to review editors to allow easier switching between Markdown and WYSIWYG. My rough aim would be around the end of the year.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • Docusaurus

    Easy to maintain open source documentation websites.

  • Does anyone know any good self-hosted documentation software? I'm looking for something similar to Docusaurus. It'll be for hosting primarily legal documentation and policies, a site like https://docs.github.com/en. Preferably with a modern UI too.

  • mkdocs-material

    Documentation that simply works

  • There's also MKdocs and the better looking https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/

  • Documize

    Modern Confluence alternative designed for internal & external docs, built with Go + EmberJS (by documize)

  • How about documize?

  • lowdefy

    The config web stack for business apps - build internal tools, client portals, web apps, admin panels, dashboards, web sites, and CRUD apps with YAML or JSON.

  • MkDocs

    Project documentation with Markdown.

  • MkDocs. https://www.mkdocs.org/

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
