Full-service installation with no hidden costs
Wiki.js stands out with its modern architecture (Node/GraphQL). We extend this base to seamlessly integrate documentation into technical workflows.
Wiki.js is API-first. We use the GraphQL API to not only display content but programmatically create it – e.g., automatic documentation from code comments.
Docs-as-Code. We configure Git sync so changes in the repo immediately land in the wiki – and vice versa. Including review workflows via pull requests.
Standard Markdown not enough? We develop rendering modules for specific data types: CAD files, interactive schematics, or Swagger UI embeddings.
How we implement Wiki.js development in practice.
Login must occur via an internal legacy IDP that does not speak standard OIDC/SAML.
Development of a custom Passport.js strategy for Wiki.js that performs authentication against your proprietary system.
API documentation in the wiki is always outdated because developers have to maintain it manually.
CI/CD pipeline that generates OpenAPI/Swagger files during build and pushes them to the wiki via GraphQL. Always in sync with code.
Complex relationships between articles (e.g., IT infrastructure) are hard to understand in text form.
Embedding a graph visualization module (Mermaid/D3.js) that automatically represents links between pages as an interactive network map.

Everything you need to know about Wiki.js
Wiki.js is a modern, open-source wiki engine based on Node.js. It allows you to create content in Markdown or via a visual editor and organizes knowledge bases, documentation, or internal wikis in a structured and clear manner.
Wiki.js combines several advantages: fast, performant execution thanks to Node.js, flexible storage options (including Markdown + Git backend instead of database lock-in), modern interface, visual and Markdown editing, version control, search function, and granular access rights — ideal for teams, companies, or government agencies.
Wiki.js is platform-independent — you can run it on VM, bare-metal server, Docker, or cloud VM. Supported databases include PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, MS SQL, etc.
Yes — Wiki.js can be deployed in the cloud, on VMs, or as an on-premise installation. With our managed service, we install and configure Wiki.js on your infrastructure — locally in your data center, GDPR-compliant, and with full control over your data.
You can edit content using Markdown or use the visual editor — ideal for both developers and non-technical users. Multimedia (images, videos, documents) can be easily embedded.
Wiki.js stores content as Markdown files, and through Git integration, changes can be versioned, tracked, and reverted if needed. This provides security and transparency — ideal for enterprise wikis and documentation.
Yes — Wiki.js has a fine-grained role and rights management: you can precisely control who can view, edit, or administer content. This makes the system suitable for internal company wikis with confidential information.
Yes — Wiki.js supports multilingualism and can be configured as a multilingual wiki. This makes it suitable for international teams or globally operating companies.
Wiki.js is ready to use in just a few clicks. The platform is designed to be intuitive and requires no technical expertise for daily use.
Yes — Wiki.js is performant and scalable. Thanks to the Node.js engine, efficient caching, and support for lightweight or powerful infrastructure, the wiki can keep up with growing demands.
We offer complete installation and configuration, hosting on your infrastructure or in certified data centers, backup & versioning, security hardening, monitoring, and optional managed service for operation, updates, and support.
For companies of all sizes — from small teams to enterprise — who want central knowledge management, documentation, internal manuals, or collaborative document work. Especially suitable when data protection, control, version history, or rights management are important.
Yes — Wiki.js supports various authentication options (e.g., LDAP, OAuth), can be integrated into existing infrastructures, and is suitable for complex environments with multiple applications and services.
Through Git backend, version control, and regular backups, data and documents can be securely restored. With managed hosting or professional maintenance, we ensure your wiki runs reliably and stably.
Unlike cloud wikis, with Wiki.js you retain full control over data, hosting, and infrastructure — ideal for data protection, compliance, GDPR. Additionally, expensive ongoing license or usage fees are eliminated.
There are several self-hosted wiki platforms: Docmost is a modern collaboration platform with real-time features. BookStack uses a simple hierarchical structure (Books/Chapters/Pages) and is particularly user-friendly. Both are open source and self-hostable. We're happy to advise you on which solution best fits your requirements.
Whether a specific IT challenge or just an idea – we look forward to the exchange. In a brief conversation, we'll evaluate together if and how your project fits with WZ-IT.
