About DokuWiki

DokuWiki is an open-source wiki engine written in PHP. It is commonly used for documentation, internal knowledge bases and project wikis, and is known for storing pages as plain text files rather than requiring a separate database, which keeps installation and backups simple.

The homepage could not be fetched when this entry was prepared, so the details here come from the repository description, topics and widely known project traits. The project is licensed under GPL-2.0, publishes dated releases and is extended with plugins and templates maintained by its community.
