Kwiki – a wiki building framework which allows its users to add pages, and edit any existing pages. It is one of the most popular forms of web collaboration.
Kwiki is a Perl wiki implementation based on the Spoon application architecture and using the Spiffy object orientation model. The major goals of Kwiki are that it be easy to install, maintain and extend.
All the features of a Kwiki wiki come from plugin modules. The base installation comes with the bare minimum plugins to make a working Kwiki. To make a really nice Kwiki installation you need to install additional plugins. Which plugins you pick is entirely up to you. Another goal of Kwiki is that every installation will be unique. When there are hundreds of plugins available, this will hopefully be the case.
Some goals of Kwiki are:
– Make Kwiki easier to install and maintain
– Make Kwiki fast
– Make Kwiki plugins easier to develop
– Make Kwiki more fun
Kwiki is the successor of the popular CGI::Kwiki software. It is a complete refactoring of that code. The new code has a lovely plugin API and is much cleaner and extendable on all fronts.
