How to deploy 144 specialized AI agents straight into your IDE
AI coding assistants like Cursor, Claude Code, and GitHub Copilot are incredibly smart. They know how to write code, debug errors, and refactor functions. But out of the box, they lack specific contex

Docmost is an open-source collaborative wiki and documentation software, designed as an alternative to popular tools like Notion and Confluence. It provides a platform for teams to create, share, and manage documentation and knowledge bases efficiently. With its open-source nature, Docmost offers flexibility and control over your data, making it an excellent choice for organizations looking to self-host their documentation solutions.
Collaborative Editing: Multiple users can edit documents simultaneously, making it easy for teams to work together.
Rich Text Editor: A user-friendly editor that supports various formatting options, making document creation intuitive.
Version Control: Track changes and revert to previous versions of documents as needed.
User Management: Add and manage users, assign roles, and control access to different parts of the documentation.
Integration: Integrates with other tools and services to enhance functionality.
To install Docmost, Docker is the recommended method. Below are the steps to get Docmost up and running on your server.
Setup the Docker Compose File
Create a new directory for Docmost and download the Docker compose file:
mkdir docmost
cd docmost
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docmost/docmost/main/docker-compose.yml
Open the docker-compose.yml file and replace the default environment variables:
version: "3"
services:
docmost:
image: docmost/docmost:latest
depends_on:
- db
- redis
environment:
APP_URL: "http://localhost:3000"
APP_SECRET: "REPLACE_WITH_LONG_SECRET"
DATABASE_URL: "postgresql://docmost:STRONG_DB_PASSWORD@db:5432/docmost?schema=public"
REDIS_URL: "redis://redis:6379"
ports:
- "3000:3000"
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:
- docmost:/app/data/storage
db:
image: postgres:16-alpine
environment:
POSTGRES_DB: docmost
POSTGRES_USER: docmost
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: STRONG_DB_PASSWORD
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:
- db_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data
redis:
image: redis:7.2-alpine
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:
- redis_data:/data
volumes:
docmost:
db_data:
redis_data:
Replace APP_URL with your chosen domain (e.g., https://example.com).
Generate a long random secret key for APP_SECRET using openssl rand -hex 32.
Replace STRONG_DB_PASSWORD with a secure password for the PostgreSQL database.
Start the Services
Ensure you are inside the docmost directory containing the docker-compose.yml file.
Run the following command to start the services:
docker-compose up -d
Verify the installation by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:3000 or the domain that points to your server. You should see the Docmost setup page to configure your workspace and account.
Post-Installation
After a successful setup, you will become the workspace owner and can invite other users to join your workspace.
For additional configuration such as email setup or file storage, refer to the Docmost documentation.
Docmost is a powerful and flexible tool for managing documentation and knowledge bases. Its open-source nature allows for customization and control, making it a great alternative to proprietary solutions like Notion. By following the installation steps above, you can quickly set up Docmost and start collaborating with your team.
