Has anyone built their customer-facing knowledge base on Jira/Confluence?

I am looking for examples of knowledge bases that are external/customer-facing that have been built on Jira/Confluence for some inspo. I am revamping our Help Center and we use Jira.

Hi @Jess Katz welcome to the community.  If you're looking for a customer facing Knowledge Base, I would recommend at least considering getting the Free version of JSM (Jira Service Management) for review, just for its Knowledge Base connectivity with Confluence.  We've been live for just over 2 years, and it works quite well for us.  Atlassian provides a front end for your customers, and you can edit and publish articles for your customers by integrating JSM w/ Confluence. Now, with Automation, you can even setup reminders to review KB articles to update them as needed.

JSM licensing is based on Agents, but if you only have a few people interacting as Agents, that might work.  If your Jira users aren't interacting w/ Customers, they can be collaborators. (JSM Roles) and don't need JSM licenses.

Here's an article from Atlassian on the JSM/Confluence integration: Confluence & JSM 

Hope that helps.
