I’m looking for a wiki solution (either remotely hosted or self-hosted is fine) that takes Markdown input.
Thanks.
Obsidian, of course.
It’s not selfhosted.
I use Silicon Notes; While it has ‘Notes’ in the title, it’s just a lightweight markdown based wiki
Can recommend this one: like it very much
I switched from Tiddlywiki to Logseq 3-4 months ago and LOVE Logseq.
Part of the reason I didn’t like Tiddlywiki was it kept everything in a single html file (including embedded images – eww) which made it annoying to move information around. (Note there is an option to run your own server which gives you extra flexibility, but I wasn’t interested in doing that.)
With Logseq, it’s separate markdown file per journal entry / wiki page. I like the addons that are available as well as the queries, e.g.,
{{query (todo doing)}}
displays my do now tasks on my journal page.Here’s a Beginner’s Guide on how to use LogSeq: YouTube video by Keep Productive
nb is a command line and local web note‑taking, bookmarking, archiving, and knowledge base application.
I’ll piggyback on this post in that I’m looking for a good ObsidianMD -> self-hosted wiki solution.
Dokuwiki has a plugin that lets you use markdown instead of their proprietary markup.
+1 Dokuwiki. It is a little complicated than most to configure the first time, but once you have everything running, it will work without complaints. Also, the whole wiki is stored as plain text files, which is awesome for backups.
piling on for Dokuwiki. Have been running it personally and for an org (2 different wikis) for like 7 or 8 years. No problems, and it’s own syntax is pretty easy too. I’ve migrated a few times too and love that it’s just plain text files
I think you should specify whether you’re looking for a wiki for personal use or shared use.
If you’re looking for personal use, something like standard notes can be a great option.
If you’re looking for shared use, and don’t care about encryption, wiki.js is IMO your best bet.
There’s currently no option that does both. Skiff exists as an encrypted collaborative notes option but it doesn’t (to my knowledge) allow any kind of self hosting.
I’m currently hosting a wiki.js
you can either use markdown or a visual editorMy only gripe with wiki.js was the use of SQL for local storage. My wiki must be future proof and locking myself in an obscure SQL database was the deal breaker. I know that you can sync with a Git repo, but it felt like an overkill.
