A simple, Git-backed wiki that powers GitHub's own documentation.
Gollum is a powerful yet simple wiki system that leverages the robust version control capabilities of Git. Unlike traditional wikis that store content in databases, Gollum stores all wiki pages as files within a Git repository. This fundamental design choice provides inherent benefits such as full revision history, easy rollback to previous versions, and the ability to work offline and synchronize changes later.
Users can create and edit pages using various popular markup languages like Markdown, AsciiDoc, and ReStructuredText, making it highly adaptable to different content creation preferences. Gollum provides a web interface for browsing and editing content, but because it's Git-backed, users can also clone the repository and edit files directly with their preferred text editor. This blend of web-based convenience and local file system control makes Gollum an excellent choice for technical teams and individuals who value flexibility and version integrity in their documentation.
