## What it is
Documize Community is a self-hosted, enterprise-grade knowledge management and wiki application built with Go and EmberJS, distributed as a single executable binary. It unifies internal and customer-facing documentation with spaces, labels, categories, and optional enterprise features like approvals, analytics, and audit logs.

## Use cases
- self-hosted confluence alternative for team documentation
- internal knowledge base for company wiki
- host customer-facing product docs on my own server
- wiki with LDAP and Active Directory login
- document management with approval workflows and versioning
- knowledge base that runs on PostgreSQL or MySQL
- searchable documentation portal for technical and non-technical users

## When to choose
- you need a self-hosted wiki or docs platform behind your firewall
- you want enterprise features like approvals, audit logs, and analytics with commercial support
- you need LDAP, AD, Keycloak, or CAS authentication
- you want a single binary deployment with no runtime dependencies

## When to avoid
- you want a fully free open-source solution without paid tiers for enterprise features
- you prefer a static site generator or git-based docs workflow
- you need real-time collaborative editing like Google Docs
- AGPL-3.0 licensing is incompatible with your usage
