Xwiki Wiki

A powerful wiki in JavaLanguage. http://www.xwiki.org/

• Wiki syntax (uses it's own polyglot rendering engine, see http://rendering.xwiki.org)
• Content management (view/edit/preview/save)
• VersionControl
• Attachments

• Full-text Search

It also has many advanced features that many other wiki engines lack:

• Document Templates to ease creation of common documents.
• RelationalDatabase storage using Hibernate.
• Design Engine for Meta-Data and Forms.
• In-place (inline) editing of form information in pages.
• Powerful programming API in documents ([Velocity>http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity] or [Groovy>http://groovy.codehaus.org])
• Search API for more detailed searching in the Meta-Data.
• Plugin System in Java.
• Plugin compatibility layer in perl with some TwikiClone plugins.
• Scalability and Performance using J2EE.
• Complete Skin System (templates content as well as CSS).
• ReallySimpleSyndication output and display of external RSS feeds
• Multi-Lingual capabilities
• REST and XML/RPC Remote API
• Portlet Integration
• Integrated Statistics
• PDF Export
• WYSIWYG HTML Editing

Before building XWiki, I have been a long time user of TWiki which has been a great source of inspiration for XWiki. I'm also very impressed by the work done on SnipSnap (and Radeox, which is used in XWiki) as well as AtlassianConfluence (although I regret it is not open-source). -- LudovicDubost? in 2003
