Wiki.js
The most advanced documentation platform for your knowledge
About Wiki.js
Wiki.js is the modern wiki platform for technical and organisational documentation: Markdown and WYSIWYG editors, full-text search, version control and fine-grained permissions, all within a fast, uncluttered interface. With Managed Wiki.js Hosting from OpenHosting, you get this platform as a ready-configured service, without having to worry about Node.js servers, databases or updates.
The core benefit lies in the combination of a modern editing experience and full data sovereignty. Your team writes in Markdown or the visual editor, links pages together, finds content through full-text search and keeps track of every change thanks to version control. Git synchronisation keeps documentation close to the code, and more than 50 authentication providers connect existing logins.
Who is Wiki.js suitable for?
Wiki.js is ideal for development teams and IT departments that want to keep technical documentation close to the code (Markdown, Git sync), as well as for SMEs, agencies and associations that need a centralised internal reference system. Manuals, operating handbooks, onboarding knowledge or support documentation all live in one searchable place. Anyone looking to move away from Confluence will find Wiki.js to be a streamlined, fast alternative with no per-user licence fees – with an uncluttered interface that non-technical staff can navigate too.
