What Documize actually does
Documize is a documentation and wiki platform that includes built-in workflow management features. It is distributed as a single Go binary executable and requires an external MySQL or Percona database to store its data. The software provides a structured space for teams to author, organise, and review internal knowledge bases.
Best fit: Self-hosters looking for a self-contained wiki solution written in Go that can integrate directly with an existing MySQL database infrastructure.
Worth knowing: The project exhibits low maintenance activity, and the AGPL-3.0 licence may impose copyleft restrictions on your modifications or network distributions.
Deployment notes
You will typically need to provision a separate MySQL database, mount persistent storage for any uploaded assets if applicable, and place the application behind a reverse proxy to handle TLS termination.
