They've stopped work on the wiki.js 1.x series completely. ugh.
Reading the milestones for it, I’ll give them the chance.
It's worth following. But looking at their focus being on huge breaking changes that don't matter but not getting what they have working yet (no tables, can't save changes) doesn't bode well for how they approach the project. Like you said, just one guy. If he starts flailing around doing the "next cool thing" instead of getting it solid, that's a problem. He had a pretty solid thing already, had he just put a tiny bit more effort into it, it would be way ahead of where it is.
You can do tables. You just have to manually make them. It’s just the button doesn’t do anything.
What's the format? I tried that and it failed.
The normal markdown format, I’ll have to look. I think it’s something like:
| | |
————
| | |That doesn’t format at all correctly. I’ll look when I get home
That's the one I tried, not sure why it didn't work. I must have done something wrong.
I haven't updated in a while so it could be broken on a newer version.
See now why would you use something you have to worry about breaking all the time, like after updating. That doesn't seem logical.
I’m not worried about anything breaking? All I said was maybe something broke since Scott said it didn’t work. I just haven’t updated it because it’s a VM in my house that I don’t hardly use and was only for testing.

And as I thought, updated (from my phone) and no change. Tables still work.

Another year and more progress.... 2.0.0-beta.42 just released on Monday.

@scottalanmiller I thought everyone moved to bookstack?

A lot have, and BookStack is very nice. But my team was torn and decided, at least for now, to stay on wiki.js.

Using a git repo is an awesome feature with Wiki.js

Yes, we love that for sure.

What is the prognosis for Wiki.js? Is it still only one dev?

Definitely very few, if not just one. But only so much development needed, I suppose. It's moving forward very slowly, but work on the 2 branch is moving forward.

Do you know anyone who is using it?

The only reason I chose Bookstack over Wiki.js is the WYSIWYG editor.

That's awfully nice. I like that a lot in BookStack (we use BS a lot, too.) The table thing is really a big deal in wiki.js (it sucks.)
Also big is the ability to organize by books in BS.

If I ever get time, I will look at Bookstack again. I would love to have something better than some flat files (excel, word, pdf, visio) for documentation and the like.

@wrx7m both wiki.js and BookStack are nice. And in reality, DokuWiki isn't bad either. We use all three, in different situations.

Pipelines in a CI/CD process. Treat it as code just like anything else

True, but I wonder how easy that is for non-tech staff to use.
