## What it is
BookStack is a self-hosted online documentation and book management system written in Go on the Beego framework, based on MinDoc and similar to Gitbook. It supports Markdown editing, bulk import/pull of Markdown books, full-text search, version control, and export to PDF/epub/mobi via Calibre.

## Use cases
- self-host a gitbook-like documentation site
- import a markdown book from a github repo zip
- export documentation to pdf epub and mobi
- host translated open-source docs for online reading
- manage team knowledge base with markdown editor
- run a public docs sharing platform with user accounts

## When to choose
- you want a Gitbook/看云-style self-hosted docs site in Go
- you need bulk import of existing Markdown books with link/image rewriting
- you want offline ebook exports (PDF/epub/mobi) and full-text search

## When to avoid
- you need actively developed software with frequent updates and security fixes
- you need rich-text/WYSIWYG editing (Markdown only)
- you need MinDoc compatibility - the schemas have diverged
