The Frustration
If you’ve used Azure DevOps Wiki, you know the pain:
- Want to move a page? Wait 45 seconds while the spinner mocks you
- Want to reorder pages? Good luck with that UI
- Want to do anything quickly? Forget about it
The wiki feature in Azure DevOps is notoriously slow and clunky. It’s built on Git under the hood, but the UI makes simple operations painfully slow.
My Solution
I built a tool that talks directly to the Azure DevOps API and lets you:
- Reorganize wiki pages without the wait
- Bulk operations that would take forever in the UI
- Actually get things done
How It Works
Built with TypeScript, works with your existing Azure DevOps wikis.
Why Not Just Use Git?
You could clone the wiki repo and edit files directly. But:
- The page hierarchy is encoded in
.orderfiles - There are naming conventions to follow
- It’s easy to mess up
This tool handles all that for you.
