How to create a beautiful reference / wiki?

Question

Wiki engines

The task is the following: to create a simple directory for a corporate site that will be used by employees. Especially such a guide will be useful to new employees who do not know how to work with this site.

The company actively uses Yandex.Mail and Yandex.Connect in general. Therefore, it was decided to make the reference book in the form of a series of articles on Yandex.Wiki using the Markdown markup language. I got acquainted with the language, wrote several articles. And what happened - does not suit me (there are no templates for design, there is not enough of some tool to create a navigation area for a quick transition from one section to another). So I'm asking for advice:

What analogues can be used to create a reference book (or your own wiki). Perhaps some constructors online or offline?
PS what I googled:
- offline option - creating an electronic directory in the form of an exe-file using, for example, Microsoft SharePoint Designer. I saw about it here: https://zen.yandex.ru/media/newteacher/kak-sdelat-... .
- online option - create a wiki for example on wikies.fandom.com (but in my opinion - this is not quite a suitable option for my task).

Here are a huge number of decent wiki engines with varying degrees of usability and customization. For myself, I chose XWiki a long time ago - this is a second-generation wiki written in Java, the LGPL distribution license, the functionality includes a blog, API tools, comments, LDAP authentication, exporting pages to PDF. There is also the ability to program scripts (Velocity, Groovy, Python, Ruby and PHP) and support the syntax of popular wiki engines (Confluence, JSPWiki, Creole, MediaWiki, and TWiki). Used by many companies around the world. 25 interface languages, including Russian.
As for your case, there is a convenient WYSIWYG editor - CKEdit, a huge number of markups are supported, including with the help of plugins, it is possible to save the page as a template and create new pages based on it, macros work with which you can make various embellishments and develop functionality. Of the minuses - the documentation in Russian on the network the cat cried, you have to read in English
