wikit.firelizard.com

A simple wiki tool designed for pure client-side operation. Wikit runs entirely in the browser as a single-page application, authenticating via OAuth and committing changes directly to GitLab repositories.

Features

• Pure client-side - No server required, runs entirely in your browser.
• No build step for UI - Frontend uses pure JavaScript with no transpilation or bundling.
• GitLab integration - Authenticate with OAuth and store wiki content in GitLab repositories.
• Markdown editing - Built on Monaco editor with full markdown support.
• Offline capable - IndexedDB caching for working without network access.
• Go WASM backend - Core logic written in Go, compiled to WebAssembly.

Documentation

Architecture

Wikit uses a split architecture: a pure JavaScript frontend handles the UI and user interactions, while a Go WASM backend runs as a web worker to manage data operations and GitLab API communication.

Wikit is structured to support multiple backend providers, though currently only GitLab is implemented.
