I have seen several questions regarding use of wikis for managing development related information and thought I would try it out as I want to document the process of a system i need to install.

Is there a recommended personal wiki app for mac?

are you looking for something that would run locally on your mac or on a webserver?? – zPesk Aug 16 '09 at 21:18

Should this be on Super User? (Not really a programming question even if it's for "development related information") – Jonik Aug 16 '09 at 22:16

Along with TiddlyWiki as David mentioned, VoodooPad is also pretty good.

TiddlyWiki is pretty good. It consists of a single html file which gets updated through javascript to include what you added or edited. It's very easy to back-up, copy, or remove. Excellent to put on a USB-drive and it works on all platforms.

I use Dokuwiki myself. A Mac has Apache built in and DokuWiki is very easy to set up. You can also use it on a USB drive.

For a work wide wiki we have DokuWiki set up on our Mac OS X Server, while I use VoodooPad to store the more sensitive information and information that doesn't need to be shared with everyone.
