Crowi is an open-source, self-hosted Markdown wiki application for team knowledge sharing, originally released in 2014. Its v2 'Reignite' rewrite (currently in alpha) rebuilds the stack on Hono + Next.js 16 with real-time collaborative editing, an embedded MCP server for AI agents, and a pluggable storage/search/auth architecture while keeping v1 MongoDB data compatibility.

Use cases

  • self-host a markdown wiki for team documentation
  • share team knowledge with URL-path-based page hierarchy
  • collaboratively edit wiki pages in real time
  • let AI agents read and write wiki content via MCP
  • migrate an existing Crowi v1 wiki to a modern stack
  • extend wiki storage, search, or rendering via plugins

When to avoid

  • you need a fully stable, production-hardened release today (v2 is alpha, v1 is deprecated)
  • you want a wiki without MongoDB/Redis/Elasticsearch infrastructure dependencies
  • you need built-in Slack integration or external page sharing, which are still in progress
