I currently run a personal wiki for some notes, recipes, and stuff. It’s set up using Wiki.js as the server. I’m the only regular user, and I feel like it’s a bit of an overkill.

Does someone have any suggestions for a more lightweight wiki server? I tried DokuWiki and mostly like it. But the UI is very old and dare I say, ugly. I love the UI of Wiki.js btw.

My main criteria is that it should be lightweight. I don’t need fancy editing features. Happy to work with raw html or markdown files.

I need some kind of permission management to hide some private wikis from the public, but otherwise I don’t really care.

    DokuWiki has themes. I’ve been using the bootstrap theme which is super old but at least does not look like the ugly default theme. You can find my wiki here.

    I didn’t find anything similarly lightweight yet apart from static site generators with Markdown files or ASCIIDoc.

    Something like wiki.js might also be worth a look.
