# BookStack
BookStack is a simple, self-hosted platform for organising and storing information in a hierarchical structure of Books, Chapters, and Pages.
## Dependencies
- **MySQL** - Database for storing content and users
- **SMTP** - For email notifications and password resets
## Configuration
Key settings in `config.yaml`:
- **domain** - Where BookStack will be accessible
- **storage** - Persistent volume size (default: `2Gi`)
- **db.name** - Database name (default: `bookstack`)
- **smtp** - Email settings inherited from your Wild Cloud SMTP service
## First-Time Setup
1. Add and deploy the app:
```bash
wild app add bookstack
wild app deploy bookstack
```
2. Log in with the default admin credentials:
- **Email**: `admin@admin.com`
- **Password**: `password`
3. **Immediately change the admin email and password** via **Settings → Your Profile**.
4. Start creating Books, Chapters, and Pages from the dashboard.
## Notes
- BookStack uses the linuxserver.io image which runs as root internally — this is expected and required for the image to function
- SMTP settings are configured via the `smtp` section in your config
- The `appKey` secret is auto-generated and used for encrypting data — do not change it after content has been created
