I have a self hosted media server, and I want my family to use it more so I don’t have to do everything for them. I think the best way to do that is to have a wiki available on the local network where they can see a reference of how to use things. What is the best way to accomplish this?

I’m running Ubuntu Server.

It’s only a few hundred pages and still works well enough I haven’t felt the need to move to anything new.

What’re you using to sync your TiddlyWiki? From your last comment, I started playing around with tiddlywiki again and the first hurdle I ran into is how to sync it between multiple devices. https://noteself.org/ looks interesting, but doesn’t seem maintained anymore.

I don’t actually sync it, I have it on my LAN web server along with my home page etc…

Do you use the nodejs server or something else to save updates? I guess tw calls them savers. I’m trying the nodejs version now and it seems alright, the auto saving is a lot faster than I was expecting

I use the store.php method. Works fine for my use case.
