@scottalanmiller I thought everyone moved to bookstack?

A lot have, and BookStack is very nice. But my team was torn and decided, at least for now, to stay on wiki.js.

Using a git repo is an awesome feature with Wiki.js

Yes, we love that for sure.

What is the prognosis for Wiki.js? Is it still only one dev?

Definitely very few, if not just one. But only so much development needed, I suppose. It's moving forward very slowly, but work on the 2 branch is moving forward.

Do you know anyone who is using it?

The only reason I chose Bookstack over Wiki.js is the WYSIWYG editor.

That's awfully nice. I like that a lot in BookStack (we use BS a lot, too.) The table thing is really a big deal in wiki.js (it sucks.)
Also big is the ability to organize by books in BS.

If I ever get time, I will look at Bookstack again. I would love to have something better than some flat files (excel, word, pdf, visio) for documentation and the like.

@wrx7m both wiki.js and BookStack are nice. And in reality, DokuWiki isn't bad either. We use all three, in different situations.

https://www.mkdocs.org/I use Asciidoctor. We did have a Hugo site but Asciidoctor has actual standards unlike markdown.

Pipelines in a CI/CD process. Treat it as code just like anything else

True, but I wonder how easy that is for non-tech staff to use.

I'm sure if you're using it you wouldn't have many non-technical people updating it. But theoretically it shouldn't be too hard through the GitLab web ui.

Not "too hard". But given that the theory behind a wiki is the insane ease of editing, it kind of defeats that. The background concept states that links are supposed to automatically make new pages. Editing should be in place. Trying to get normal end users to start going to GitHub feels cumbersome even just to explain.
Easy enough for techs to do, but seems better suited to something edited occasionally rather than constantly.
