Raneto is a free, open-source Markdown-powered knowledge base and wiki for Node.js. It serves file-based Markdown content with full-text search via Lunr.js, a built-in browser editor, and optional login protection, with no database required.

Use cases

• host a self-hosted internal wiki
• build a documentation site from markdown files
• create a product knowledge base without a database
• edit documentation pages in the browser
• add full-text search to markdown docs
• version-control documentation with git

When to choose

• you want a lightweight, file-based markdown wiki with no database
• you need built-in full-text search and a browser editor
• you want to self-host documentation with Docker or Node.js
• you prefer content stored as plain markdown files in git

When to avoid

• you need multi-user role-based permissions or rich WYSIWYG editing
• you want a full static site generator pipeline rather than a running server
• you need database-backed content or enterprise CMS features
