Tiny Wiki

This is (hopefully) small Ruby gem that you can use to launch and run your own little, tiny wiki server!

• gem install tiny-wiki
• mkdir <foldername> (or place your markdown files in an existing folder)
• tiny_wiki_server <foldername>

That's it! Open your web browser to http://localhost:4567

The ruby gem will automatically use a Home.md as your main index file. If this doesn't exist, then you will be prompted to create a new one and update it!

If you enter a wiki page url that does not yet have content, you will be directed to the new page editor!

Make use of [[target page]] syntax to create embedded links to other wiki pages.

• git clone git@github.com:erikyuzwa/tiny-wiki-gem.git
• cd tiny-wiki-gem
• bundle install
