bookstack

BookStack is a self-hosted platform for storing and organising information and documentation. According to its README, it aims to be an opinionated documentation platform that provides a pleasant and simple out-of-the-box experience: new users should find it intuitive, and only basic word-processing skills should be needed to create content. Advanced power features exist for those who want them, but they are not meant to interfere with the core simple experience. The project states that it is not designed as an extensible platform for purposes beyond that definition. Its development philosophy is described as relaxed, open and positive, with the goal of slowly yet continuously evolving the platform while providing a stable and easy upgrade path. Key links listed in the README include installation instructions, documentation, a demo instance, screenshots, a blog, an issue list, community discussions and support options. The repository notes that it is now managed on Codeberg, with an alternate source available via Git. Contributions are handled through issues and pull requests, with pull requests expected to be created from the development branch. Translations are managed through Crowdin rather than pull requests, and the README notes that translations are contributed to a Crowdin Global Translation Memory. Security reporting details and a security mailing list are referenced, and the project states an accessibility aim of at least WCAG 2.1 Level A where possible, without strict testing on every release. The source is provided under the MIT License, and the README lists numerous open-source dependencies used to build the platform, including Laravel, TinyMCE, Lexical, CodeMirror, diagrams.net, markdown-it, Dompdf and others, each under their own licenses.
