This looks really nice. Atlassian did not consider small businesses with regulatory requirements when it decided to push everyone to the cloud. Atlassian's cloud cannot ever meet my regulatory requirements, by 2024 I need to replace Confluence. There is no way I can pay for the cost of the Data Center version of Confluence you'll be able to self-host, over $20K/year to self-host Confluence is a non-starter. Does BookStack index uploaded files for search? If so, what formats does it support? Can pages (or books) be exported in common formats? Any plans to support Postgres in the future?

> Does BookStack index uploaded files for search? If so, what formats does it support? No, unfortunately not. You can attach files but we only support indexing (And parsing) of core page content. Indexing other formats opens up a large branch of maintenance while adding potential confusion in the platform in regards to what's considered content. > Can pages (or books) be exported in common formats? Yeah, Both can be exported as plaintext, markdown, contained-html or PDF. The PDF export can be troublesome but works for most simple use-cases. > Any plans to support Postgres in the future? Not in sight for the near future. I'm not closed off to it but there are questions of support and maintainership.
