Overview

Teams often lose track of documentation, and internal wikis become slow, scattered or hard to edit together. Outline is a knowledge base that keeps company docs in one fast, searchable place where several people can write and edit at the same time. The application is built with React and Node.js and offers realtime collaborative editing, markdown compatibility and a clean interface for organizing documents. Its source code is what runs the hosted service at getoutline.com, and the project provides Docker container images for those who want to run their own copy. Outline suits engineering, product and operations teams that want an internal wiki they control. Self-hosting requires following the official installation documentation for a production setup. The code is licensed under the BSL 1.1 license.
