About This Manual & /docs Companion Guide
Welcome to the Standalone Qwiki Companion Manual (home.qwiki.wiki/manual/).
This documentation portal is designed as a comprehensive, role-structured companion alongside home.qwiki.wiki/docs. While /docs mirrors the lightweight demo dataset bundled inside every fresh Standalone Qwiki release, /manual documents the full platformβfrom everyday reading and authoring to security administration, server recipes, extension APIs, and AI/LLM integration.
Built by eating our own dogfood: This entire manual is structured, validated, screenshot-enriched, and published headlessly using qwiki-builder. Every chapter, nested category, and image asset is managed in a declarative manifest and deployed via Standalone Qwiki's own REST APIs.
