Wiki.js

Velocity6.3

Powerful open-source wiki platform with a modern editor, multiple rendering engines, and built-in user management for teams and organizations

Wiki.js 3.0 beta ships blog pages, comments, and AsciiDoc — pivoting toward a full content platform

wikiself-hostedcontent-platformv3-betaenterprise-auth
Current state
Wiki.js runs a dual-track release model: v2.5.x receives security patches for production deployments while v3.0.0 is in active beta, accumulating substantial new capabilities in rapid batches. The 3.0 beta has moved well beyond documentation into broader self-hosted content infrastructure, adding blogging, community comments, analytics, enterprise auth (Entra/LDAP/SAML/Discord with group mapping), and an AsciiDoc editor.
Where it's heading
Version 3.0.0 is closing its feature gap with hosted CMS platforms at an accelerating pace. Blog pages, a built-in talk module, analytics, custom content blocks, and passkey support all landed within a single week of beta updates. The direction is a GA release that competes with Confluence and Notion for organizations that want self-hosted knowledge infrastructure without vendor lock-in.
Prediction
A release candidate for 3.0.0 looks likely within the next two to three months given the current batch velocity. The v2.5.x branch accepting only security fixes signals the team considers 2.x feature-frozen.
