Overview

What is Raneto?

Raneto is an open source and self-hostable knowledge base, powered by simple Markdown files and built on Node.js. Its philosophy is to provide the essentials of a wiki or product documentation without the bloat of a complex platform.

Its "flat file" architecture is its greatest strength: Raneto uses no database. Each page is a Markdown file stored in a content folder, making the tool simple (edit with your favorite editor or via Git), portable, and very lightweight. Backing up is as simple as copying text files.

As for features, Raneto produces a clean, responsive documentation site with full-text search powered by Lunr.js. It is a lightweight alternative to solutions like Confluence or GitBook, ideal for documenting an API, setting up an internal wiki, or publishing product guides — all hosted in France and maintained by DINAO.

Is a database required?

No. Raneto is a "flat file" CMS: all pages are simple Markdown files stored in a folder. No database to manage, making it lightweight and easy to back up.

How is content written?
