| Best use | Ideal for a small team that wants runbooks, product decisions, and system documentation on its own server with live editing, search, and page history. It is not a fit for teams that want zero server operations or expect SSO and granular page permissions in the free edition. | For developers and small teams that want architecture and data-flow diagrams close to the repository and reviewable as text. Use it when relationships matter more than pixel-perfect placement; not for free-form marketing design or exact manual positioning. | Best for a developer or analyst extracting text from several document formats before search or supplying selected passages to an AI agent. It provides a repeatable CLI command and Python library, while requiring review against the original. It is not intended for layout-perfect document publishing. |
