Hey all!
I'm excited to announce the release of Leafwiki v0.2.0 – a minimal, Markdown-based wiki that runs as a single binary with zero external dependencies.
It doesn't require a database, and all content is stored as Markdown files. It's easy to run locally or on a small server.

What is Leafwiki?
Leafwiki is designed for simplicity
- ✅ Runs as a single executable
- ✅ Uses Markdown for all content
- ✅ Includes basic permissions management (editor/admin access)
- ✅ Requires no setup or database
What`s new in v0.2.0
This release brings major improvements to the writing experience:
- ✍️ Switched from
<textarea>to a CodeMirror-based Markdown editor - 🛠️ Added a formatting toolbar with support for:
- Bold / Italic / Strikethrough
- Headings (H1–H3)
- Links
- Code blocks
- Tables
- Asset uploads (images, etc.)
It now feels much more like a modern writing tool.

In upcoming patch releases:
- 📁 Multi-file uploads
