What's the Best Wiki for a Self Hosted Home Lab?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/selfhosted

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
  • BookStack

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

  • It's a surprisingly common take, people can be very loyal to their database. I have had multiple others say that they can't use BookStack since it uses MySQL instead of Postgres.

  • obsidian-releases

    Community plugins list, theme list, and releases of Obsidian.

  • Not quite what you're after but I love Obsidian. Rather than use a website, you just sync the markdown files (probably with the rest of your documents) to your devices and open it from there. Works perfectly and I trust far more than Bookstack (e.g. having actual text files long term is much better than a database). Far more portable too if you want to swap to another wiki later on.

  • 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.

  • mycorrhiza

    šŸ„šŸ“‘ Filesystem and git-based wiki engine for the independent web written in Go using Mycomarkup as its primary markup language.

  • iā€™m fond of a small project called mycorrhiza - check it out! https://github.com/bouncepaw/mycorrhiza

  • homelab

    Modern self-hosting framework, fully automated from empty disk to operating services with a single command.

  • Here're the links to the Markdown source and the web view.

  • mdBook

    Create book from markdown files. Like Gitbook but implemented in Rust

  • I just use simple Markdown and commit to my git repo (hosted on both GitHub and Gitea), then I use mdBook to create a web version of it.

  • Raneto

    Markdown powered Knowledgebase Wiki for Node.js

  • I use http://raneto.com/ Simple and lightweight

  • MkDocs

    Project documentation with Markdown.

  • I do similar, but I found I really like mkdocs with some other packages. (More info on my KB's homepage.)

  • 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.
