Quick Start

Create a workspace

Click the + button next to the workspace name in the sidebar. Enter a name like my-project and press Enter. localWiki auto-generates an icon and color from the workspace name.

Create a page

With your workspace selected, click the + button next to the “pages” heading in the sidebar. Type a page title and press Enter. A blank page opens in the editor.

Write some content

Start typing. The editor supports Markdown shortcuts:

# Project Overview
 
This is the internal wiki for **my-project**.
 
## Architecture
 
We use a microservices setup with three main services:
- `api-gateway` — routes incoming requests
- `auth-service` — handles JWT authentication
- `data-service` — manages PostgreSQL connections

Your content is automatically saved as you type. No save button needed.

Add a project key

Open the Project Keys tab in the sidebar. Click Add Key and enter:

• Name: DATABASE_URL
• Value: postgresql://user:pass@localhost:5432/mydb

The key is encrypted and tied to your workspace. You can copy it to your clipboard anytime.

Done

You now have a workspace with documentation and a securely stored credential. Everything lives on your local machine — no data left your device.
