    Gollum might be something worth looking into. It is basically a clone of the GitHub Wiki pages, built on top of git (so it uses version-controlled flat files as backend).

    Hugo is a general-purpose website framework for generating static web pages.
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    I use Hugo to generate a static site to host my personal wiki. All the pages are written in Markdown. I used Vim in the past to author content, but these days I use Obsidian. I'm not aware of a Wiki CMS that stores files as Markdown files. But, if you widen the scope of your search, there are many static site generators that can render a site from Markdown files. With the right theme, you basically have a Wiki.

    Http://raneto.com/ is "an open source Knowledgebase platform that uses static Markdown files to power your Knowledgebase" and might fit your bill. No database, just regular `md` files.
