openKB

openKB is a Markdown Knowledge base application (FAQ) built with Nodejs and ExpressJS. The application uses an embedded database (nedb) by default but can also use a MongoDB server. The application is designed to be easy to use and install and based around search rather than nested categories. Simply search for what you want and select from the results.

Features
Search: openKB is a search based Knowledge base (FAQ) backed by Lunr.js indexing to create the best possible results on searches.
Backend: openKB uses the pure Javascript nedb embedded database by default or a MongoDB server.
Design/Themes: openKB is meant to be simple flat design. Themes can be added by creating a theme folder within public/themes/. See the example theme for more information.
Responsive: openKB is built using Bootstrap allowing it to be responsive and work on all devices. The admin can be a little difficult editing Markdown on smaller screens.
Mermaid: openKB allows for Mermaid charts in articles.
Editor: openKB uses Markdown-it which is based off the CommonMark spec. This allows for the very best Markdown experience.
Image management: openKB allows for drag and drop of images into articles. The image is automatically uploaded to the server in the background. Google Chrome users can also paste images directly from the clipboard.
