Step-by-step guide

6 steps

  1. 1

    Define your wiki structure

    Plan the categories your wiki needs: onboarding, product guides, engineering standards, HR policies, how-to articles. A good structure prevents the "dumping ground" problem of most wikis.

  2. 2

    Describe the wiki to Appaca

    Tell Appaca: "Build a team wiki with articles (title, category, content, author, last updated, status), a search feature, a recently updated list, and a category browser."

  3. 3

    Start with the most-asked questions

    Ask your team: what do new people ask most often? These are your highest-priority wiki articles. Start with those rather than trying to document everything at once.

  4. 4

    Write and publish articles

    Draft articles with a clear format: purpose, step-by-step instructions, common mistakes, and related articles. Keep articles focused on one topic each.

  5. 5

    Assign article owners

    Each article should have an owner responsible for keeping it updated. Assign ownership based on who knows each process best.

  6. 6

    Establish a review cadence

    Mark articles with a "last reviewed" date. Set a quarterly review cycle where owners verify their articles are still accurate.

Frequently asked questions

Is this better than using Notion or Confluence for a wiki?

Appaca builds a wiki tailored to exactly your structure. If you want custom fields, workflows, or views that Notion and Confluence don't support, Appaca builds them from your description.

Can employees submit new wiki articles?

Yes. Set up a "draft" status and allow any team member to create a draft. Admins review and publish approved articles.
