Today I was looking at some ways to get wikis for games that are very in depth offline for personal use. Wiki.js was one of the more prominent results so I looked into it. I’m no HTML pro, but I do know a few things, enough to make it look decent enough for my own curiosity and usage. I just wanted to share with others who might be interested in something similar!

I absolutely love the layout and how easy it is to move stuff over. Once I made the default theme dark, it was game on. I have spent the last 3 hours moving bits and pieces from the wikis I was interested in over to it. Give it a try!

I’m hosting it through the Apps feature in TrueNAS Scale. Not exposed to the internet. On TrueNAS, I set it up ACL (permissions) with a preset one that I made for quickly giving myself access to anything for my file browser.

THANK YOU to all the devs and anyone who has supported this project. Excellent piece of software!

    I moved to Outline, more functions, easier user management and public sharing imo

    I tried docmost too, it has a cleaner look than Wiki.js, but SSO is enterprise only. That was a killer for me

    I used Wiki.js for years, but it seems pretty dead. Sometimes after months there is a new release with just 1 or 2 bugfixes. Yeah I know… He is working on V3 with many new features (that other wikis already have) and so on. He is doing this for 4 or 5 years now.

    People asked to help, to contribute or donate… He doesn’t want anything, he wants to develop on his own (you can read this in his Discord)

    My opinion: stay away from Wiki.js and get a better one like Docmost, Bookstack or Outline.

      Outline requires license for sso features too:

      Purchasing an Outline license enables access to many additional features such as SAML, security audit log, structured data attributes, and the Confluence importer.

        For SAML yes, but you can use many other options including OIDC without a license.

    I tried it in the past and it felt too heavy for my use case. Also for some reason the sidebar menu doesn’t show all the items at all times but instead keeps only showing the ones related to the branch you just went into.

    Also it seems pretty dead updates wise

    Mdbook is really nice if you mind the lack of dyanimic editing in a web browser

    We use wiki.js at work, its an easier way to build a learning platform with it than learning and building something like moodle.
