## What it is
Opus is an open-source, self-hosted knowledge base web application for teams, where members create wikis and nested pages organized into spaces and tags. It ships with role-based ACL permissions, full-text search across the knowledge base, comments, favorites, watch settings, in-app and Slack notifications, reusable page templates, and PDF/Office export.

## Use cases
- self-hosted wiki for my team's internal documentation
- open-source alternative to Confluence or Notion for a company knowledge base
- organize meeting notes, project plans, and technical docs in one searchable place
- team documentation tool with role-based permissions and email invites
- company intranet where departments share and tag knowledge pages
- internal knowledge base that notifies Slack when wikis are updated
- export team docs to PDF or Office files for sharing

## When to choose
- Your team needs a centralized, self-hosted place for wikis, processes, and documentation with hierarchical spaces and pages
- You want built-in ACL roles, comments, favorites, watch notifications, and Slack updates without assembling separate tools
- You prefer a Docker-deployable open-source wiki with templates and PDF/Office generation for easy sharing

## When to avoid
- You need a lightweight static documentation site generator rather than a full server-side application with a database
- You require real-time multi-user collaborative editing or a broad ecosystem of third-party integrations
- You need enterprise-grade support or a permissive standard license, given the custom (NOASSERTION) license and single-maintainer project
