server/views/master.pug
server/views/legacy/master.pug
server/views/setup.pug

You shouldn't put wiki.js inside a xampp public folder...

Read the install instructions

I understand the concern about placing Wiki.js inside the XAMPP public folder, but it's technically feasible. The issue I'm facing is that the files server/views/master.pug, server/views/legacy/master.pug, and server/views/setup.pug are missing because they're in .gitignore.
I’ll look into retrieving those files from the repository.

That's not how you install Wiki.js. The files are missing because you're installing it wrong. So again, read the instructions.

As for installing it inside the xampp public folder, just because it's "technically feasible" doesn't mean it's not a terrible idea. You're exposing potentially sensitive data by doing so.
