Could you give me your feedback about my knowledge management solution for G Suite and Google Drive?

I created a wiki for Google Drive, that aims to be a Confluence alternative for G Suite users. The idea is, that you don't have to misuse Google Docs or Keep to collaborate on ideas, link, code snippets, etc.

You find it at: https://awiki-245320.appspot.com

I came up with the idea when I was searching for a personal wiki that works well with my Google Drive. After I didn't find anything, I figured that I roll my own.

In my professional career I was a product owner for a Confluence-based intranet solution called Linchpin(https://linchpin-intranet.com/). So I had some background in knowledge management.

On more thing: If you are a native speaker, could you comment on the name? I looked it up in the urban dictionary and the description is not very pleasant :). But I don't know how big of a deal this slang use is.

    Really like the idea. We are using gsuite a lot. We use docs for documentation, which is fine for writing but very cumbersome for reading.

    Could not get it to work do I have to enable something first? :

    1. That’s an error.

    Error: redirect_uri_mismatch

      Sorry: The url is of course https://awiki-245320.appspot.com/

      It has to start with httpS otherwise Google auth will not work.

        I got it to work on my regular account, it wouldn't with my G-Suite account for some reason. Stuck at the login screen.

        Looks good so far. Never used confluence but I've been pondering knowledge management myself as I'm in a few closed groups that share information like crazy. One is G Drive heavy.

        Is this going to be a cloud service or something you can roll on your own?

          G Suite features are not implemented so far. Right now this is still an MVP.

          Next Sprint I plan to add collaboration features like sharing and commenting. The Sprint after that I plan to add shared drives.

          The idea is that everything is saved in G Drives. Personal or Shared Drives. Fulcrum only supplies the client. G Drive is the backend. So there is no on premise installation.

          Hope that clarifies.

        My first bug report =)

    Looks like almost like an official Google product.

    Which editor do you use?

      The editor is my own creation build with slatejs(https://www.slatejs.org/#/rich-text)
