In a world where smartphones are our primary devices, it’s essential for tools like DokuWiki to deliver a seamless mobile experience. I maintain three separate DokuWiki instances for different projects, all using the Writr template, which was originally based on a WordPress theme of the same name. DokuWiki has become invaluable for creating, sharing, and organizing documentation collaboratively — something I consider crucial for any business.

The Writr template itself started as a conversion of a WordPress theme to fit DokuWiki. However, WordPress and DokuWiki serve quite different purposes, each optimized for its own unique style of content management. As the maintainer of the Writr template, I saw room for improvement to make DokuWiki more user-friendly on smaller screens, enhancing usability and accessibility for both myself and others who rely on this template for business documentation.
