ShowDoc is a self-hostable online documentation tool for IT teams, focused on API docs, data dictionaries, and technical manuals with a Markdown editor. It supports team permission management, document sharing/export, and auto-generating docs from code comments.

Use cases

  • write and share API documentation for a dev team
  • create a data dictionary describing database schemas
  • host internal technical manuals and tool instructions
  • collaboratively edit team docs with permission control
  • generate API docs from code comments
  • export documentation as offline Word files

When to choose

  • your team needs a simple self-hosted wiki/API doc tool
  • you want quick Markdown-based API and data dictionary docs
  • you need public/private projects with member permissions

When to avoid

  • you need deep OpenAPI/Swagger spec tooling or code-first doc generation pipelines
  • you want a general-purpose enterprise knowledge base with rich integrations
  • you require a permissively licensed dependency (license is non-standard)
