  1. docmost

    Docmost is an open-source collaborative wiki and documentation software. It is an open-source alternative to Confluence and Notion.

  3. Outline

    The fastest knowledge base for growing teams. Beautiful, realtime collaborative, feature packed, and markdown compatible.

  4. anytype-ts

    Official Anytype client for MacOS, Linux, and Windows

    Notion is excellent at collaboration, and works so so on mobile the last time I used it. Mostly if you didn't open all the pages you wante before taking off on a flight (imagine no wifi), things fall apart.

    On to the option -- currently been giving Anytype a pretty hard go on the colalboration side, as well as playing with Obsidian to see if it can feed into it.

  5. hocuspocus

    The CRDT Yjs WebSocket backend for conflict-free real-time collaboration in your app.

    Yjs is a lot more stable now and production ready.

    Docmost uses Hocuspocus (by Tiptap) as the websocket backend for Yjs (https://tiptap.dev/docs/hocuspocus/introduction).

  6. y-sweet

    A realtime CRDT-based document store, backed by S3.

  7. mysql-5.6

    Facebook's branch of the Oracle MySQL database. This includes MyRocks.

  8. gl-infra

  9. InfluxDB

  10. mkdocs-material

    Documentation that simply works

  11. nextra

    Simple, powerful and flexible site generation framework with everything you love from Next.js.

    Not quite the same use case, but I've been really enjoying using https://nextra.site/ to create a static documentation site for one of my projects.

    It's managed to strike a good balance of getting out the way and letting me mostly just write plain markdown, whilst being able to fall back to react components if needed.

    With CD to GitHub pages on merge to main I think it's a pretty good experience

  12. mantine

    A fully featured React components library

    It was my first time doing react things. The great Mantine UI (https://mantine.dev/) react library helped a lot.

  13. s6-overlay

    s6 overlay for containers (includes execline, s6-linux-utils & a custom init)

    This has worked pretty well for me both for service control and pre-execution environment setup

    https://github.com/just-containers/s6-overlay

  14. BookStack

    A platform to create documentation/wiki content built with PHP & Laravel

    We use Bookstack[0] for this and I can recommend it. Free and open source.
