Wiki.js
Modern, extensible wiki software built on Node.js

Wiki.js is a modern, lightweight wiki application designed for internal documentation, knowledge bases, and team collaboration. It focuses on modular extensibility, strong access controls, and flexible deployment options.
Key Features
- Markdown-based content editing with rich formatting and media support
- Modular architecture with many optional integrations (auth, search, storage, logging, rendering)
- Extensive administration interface for managing content, users, and settings
- Flexible access control for public, private, or mixed wikis
- Multiple authentication options including local auth and enterprise integrations (LDAP, SAML, OAuth2/OIDC)
- Two-factor authentication support for compatible authentication modules
- Compatible with multiple SQL databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server, SQLite)
Use Cases
- Team knowledge base for processes, runbooks, and internal documentation
- Product and engineering documentation portal with structured pages
- Company intranet wiki with SSO-backed access control
Limitations and Considerations
- Some advanced capabilities depend on enabling and configuring specific modules and external services
