Nyland Wiki How-To
This wiki is Nyland's own instance of Bookstack, "a simple, self-hosted, easy-to-use platform for organising and storing information."
We're still testing it out, so the information you'll find here is certainly incomplete, and the organization of things is likely to change rapidly. However, for the knowledge that is here, you'll find it much easier to find things than before, because Bookstack has a ✨search bar✨.
Useful Parts of the BookStack Manual
Basic Orientation,Reading and HowFinding Information
Honestly, you can probably find everything here by clicking around; it's designed to Findbe Info:fairly friendly to that.
A little orientation my help. Every piece of information on this website is part of a Page. Each Page belongs to some Book, and the Pages in a Book can be further organized into Chapters. You can see all the Books on this site by clicking on the "Books" icon, in the navigation bar at the very top of every page.

Logging In
If you're reading this, then you should have an invitation to login with your Nylandish User. Contact Matt Elder if you'd like to login there but you either don't yet have an account, or if it's not simply working for you. The Nylandish Login platform uses passkeys - so once you're set up on some device, you shouldn't ever need a password to login with that user. (No passwords but secure anyway! The future is here, and it has some little bright spots! -Matt)
Adding and Organizing Information
All the content on this website is written up by Nyland folk. If you're a Nyland resident, you can edit (nearly) everything you see, once you're logged in.
