MediaWiki mentioned!

I started running an private MediaWiki instance during the pandemic as I wanted something with a nice editing experience rather than editing markdown documents. I almost went with a self-hosted Confluence instance :P

Mediawiki is very very nice and it has a lot of cool features i've been loving over the years.

One of the things i like the most is the ability to embed a PDF document so that it's both downloadable and browsable from the wiki page itself (it embeds the browser pdf engine).

This means that i can, say, have a page for my microwave oven and have its user manual easily available.

Lately I've been thinking how to connect that with some LLM, most likely there's a chance to do some interesting things :)
