About

BookStack is a simple, self-hosted, easy-to-use platform for organizing and storing information. BookStack is fully free and open, MIT licensed. The source is available on GitHub. There is no cost to downloading and installing your own instance of bookstack. Simplicity has been the top priority when building BookStack. The content in BookStack is fully searchable. You are able to search at book level or across all books, chapters & pages. The ability to link directly to any paragraph allows you to keep your documentation connected. Configuration options allow you to set-up BookStack to suit your use case. You can change the name, Logo and registration options. You can also change whether the whole system is publicly viewable or not. BookStack is built using PHP, on top of the Laravel framework and it uses MySQL to store data. Performance has been kept in mind and BookStack can run happily on a $5 Digital Ocean VPS.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Clean interface. The product like any editor has a learning curve. It takes a while but you'll eventually get the hang of it.
  • Great editor interface. Generate book as Static Website, PDF, eBook. Free for open source projects. Syncs with GitHub and GitLab. Version control and async collaboration.

Cons

  • I am locked out and cannot access the whitepaper I am writing. This is a terrible experience for a writing application. I've used Slab and Knowledge 360 and I've never experienced anything like this.
  • No cons - Community edition is free forever although with limitations.
