Looking for a wiki-like application for Windows (feddit.de)

I'm currently using a self hosted instance of XWiki on my NAS to write down long term notes just for myself. But it runs very slow with the database and limited hardware ressources. And since I only access it from my Windows PC on my LAN I figured I'd just need an application that does the same job and save the files on my NAS.

So does anyboy know a good Open Source application for Windows that can be used like that? It needs features like these:

  • WYSIWYG editor
  • tables
  • font colors
  • font highlights
  • text code
  • headings
  • embed images
  • embed YouTube links
  • (un-)ordered lists
  • bold text
  • underlined text

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Added WYSIWYG editor to the list.

Maybe Joplin?

Yep, Joplin is great. It uses markdown and I've been using it for a while now. Great application

I already use Joplin but it doesn't offer all the features I need (afaik). Tables for example.

It does feature tables, both in the markdown and rich text editor.

I've tables in Joplin... https://joplinapp.org/markdown/#tables

Oh, right. But it looks very inconvenient to create and edit tables. I'd rather stick with my XWiki then. Thank you anyways.

They've a GUI / WYSIWYG editor to make things easier:
