There are many plugins for DokuWiki.
Here are some of the recommended plugins that I usually use.

See below for what DokuWiki is

EditTable Plugin

You can edit the table like in Excel.
For example, you can edit the cell with F2 or start a new line with Alt + Enter.

xbr plugin

In the standard version, you have to have \\ for text line breaks.
By using this plugin, the line breaks in the text when editing will also be broken on display.
You will be able to edit intuitively.

Indexmenu

By adding an Indexmenu to the sidebar, you can manage your wiki like an explorer.
You can see the hierarchical structure of the pages and the list of pages.
You can right-click to create a new page or search against the directory.

ImgPaste Plugin

You can paste an image from the clipboard with Ctrl + V.
Since you don’t have to decide or change the file name, it speeds up page creation.

WRAP

You can decorate and enclose text.
I recommend this because it is added to the toolbar when editing, so you don’t have to remember the code.

Color plugin

You will be able to select a color on the toolbar of the edit screen. You don’t have to remember tags and colors, and you can operate it intuitively.

Move plugin

This is a plugin that allows you to rename pages and move pages easily.

Table Width Plugin

Without this plugin, you will not be able to set the cell width of the table, and the table will not look nice.
It is essential to make the table look the way you want.

TocTweak Plugin

I use it to make the table of contents inline.

fontsize2 Plugin

fontsize2 is a plugin that allows you to change the font size.
You can change the font size from the form icon.
