I have a self hosted media server, and I want my family to use it more so I don’t have to do everything for them. I think the best way to do that is to have a wiki available on the local network where they can see a reference of how to use things. What is the best way to accomplish this?
I’m running Ubuntu Server.
I use dokuwiki for years now. It’s not that pretty but it works well. No dark mode though afaik
Dark mode can be done by changing the template. You can install a new template, or there’s an admin panel to change the colors, and you can get dark mode that way. But it’s true that there’s no dark mode for some and light mode for others option.
I’m currently running Dokuwiki as a Docker container, which has a built-in editor, good admin web-ui panel, easy ways to add multiple users, and also baked in access control rules so some can edit certain pages. It is also flat-file so no storing plain text in a database, so you can backup and migrate easily.
There are a lot of alternatives, but Dokuwiki is quite mature, and has that familiar Wiki look that your family might appreciate, rather than it looking like boring/corporate software documentation.
If you have docker installed then you can easily use WikiJS
