Looking for a good wiki platform for Rails

I'm looking for a good wiki platform to work with RoR, I know mediawiki is great but its in PHP and I'd rather keep my code base in the same language if possible.

DHH (I think) wrote a simple wiki in Ruby several years ago called Instiki. I haven't used it in a while, but I'm sure the code is out there somewhere.

If you want an active project, there's something called Decko, which is a wiki in Ruby, but an unusual (and apparently successful) take on how to do a wiki. I've not used it, but all my poking at it suggests it's a very well-thought-out and useful approach. Find it at https://decko.org/

Try the font of gem-ishness, ruby-toolbox.com

https://www.ruby-toolbox.com/categories/wiki_apps

I note the top 3 are all git-baseed, rather than database based, at time of writing. I've used none, myself yet. So I guess we use number of download be a guide?
