Thank you for your answers! I am interested in the git synchronisation and the different aforementioned plugins and approaches. I do not know how to do the git sync and I would need an example.
However, I would like to make it collaborative. Ludwa06 and Finn said that it is difficult for a team. I do not know GitHub pages. Is it free? We use a private GitLab business account so I am not sure that it would be the solution. If you could provide me with a recipe to use it like Finn with the implementation of Charlie and Sylvain's ideas I will try it on Monday. To be honest I will compare it to Notion, Bookstack and Tettra. Knowing that we are a very small company (14 employees including 4 full-time developers) I have to find a free solution while escaping from the messy situation where nobody knows how the guy who is just sitting next to you installs software, runs programs, writes his code and deploys it, etc. This situation has consequences: if someone is absent or leaves the company the onboarding is very hard. Last Monday I spend all my time trying to set up a program. Finally, on Tuesday its developer told me that he has a lot of steps to explain to me, that I have to follow to start the applications with many installations. This is my case and the reason for what I am looking for a private Wiki. Best Regards.
