    Guide by Example

  • Bookstack ended up being it.

  • Outline

    The fastest knowledge base for growing teams. Beautiful, realtime collaborative, feature packed, and markdown compatible.

  • I also have https://www.getoutline.com/ set up, it works but it's a bit of a hassle to install even with docker-compose. Still, it's the best self-hosted alternative to Notion that I've ever used.

  • retype

  • I recently set up something with https://retype.com/ and it's quite good.

  • MkDocs

    Project documentation with Markdown.

  • Do you need a whole wiki? You could put together a static HTML documentation site with MkDocs.

  • mycorrhiza

  • obsidian-releases

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

  • Similar problem but at work. We just gone for https://obsidian.md and then synced stuff via Onedrive/sharepoint. (Issue, the onedrive client on the Linux users is wiping notes over and over, sadly we wont go over the trial period)

  • awesome-knowledge-management

    A curated list of amazingly awesome articles, people, applications, software libraries and projects related to the knowledge management space

  • I could see it working with syncthing. maybe check https://github.com/brettkromkamp/awesome-knowledge-management

  • Mail-in-a-Box

    Mail-in-a-Box helps individuals take back control of their email by defining a one-click, easy-to-deploy SMTP+everything else server: a mail server in a box.

  • If you wanted to take the time to read through this PR created by the Mail-in-a-Box maintainer for project migration to 22.04, you could see how the silliness goes on to downstream projects.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
