Where it fits
Teams documenting procedures, handover notes and internal reference material.
Trade-offs and limitations
It is a documentation system, not a complete substitute for Notion databases, formulas or project automation.
Deployment and technology
PHP/Laravel and MySQL or MariaDB. Self-hosting requires a supported deployment, capacity planning and a named maintainer. Consult the official installation guide for the current version.
Portability and integration
| API | REST API for supported content and management operations |
|---|---|
| Authentication | Local login and documented LDAP, SAML or OIDC options |
| Data export | Page/book exports and full database/uploads backup; an export is not a full-site restore |
Migration considerations
Map page hierarchy, internal links, attachments and permissions; identify database-driven content that needs another system.
Security and ongoing costs
Budget for infrastructure, implementation, monitoring, patching, backups, restore tests and user support. Check the supported release and current advisories with the project. An open licence is not a security guarantee.
Freedom score and exit difficulty
A complete, evidence-backed assessment of all 15 criteria is required before publishing a score. Exit difficulty depends on your customisations, data model, integrations and operating documentation. This profile does not claim a hands-on benchmark or a complete security assessment.
