The metaphysicians of Tlön are not looking for truth, nor even for an approximation of it; they are after a kind of amazement.
(J.L. BORGES trans. ANDREW HURLEY, Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius)

We chose Xwiki because, like Wikimedia and its Wikipedia, it is an open source server for the organization of knowledge, increasingly the conventional, collectively contested, repository for all facts (lists of population densities and Grammy winners, dates and election results). As a (legal, open-source) knockoff of Wikipedia, it integrates well with our scale and tech stack, running in a Docker container as a Java application pulling from a Postgres SQL database, permitting extensive customization. As such half-comprehended alternatives tend to, in text and context it is brittle, occasionally incompatible, and full of both contradictions and vapid fictions.

- The Editors

Welcome to your wiki

XWiki is the best tool to organize your knowledge. A wiki is organized in a hierarchy of pages. You can create multiple wikis, each with its own set of pages.

XWiki can be used as a knowledge base (support, documentation, sales, etc.), for collaborative workspaces or even as a complete intranet.

The basics

To make the most out of your wiki, log-in and:

Use the button above to edit this page and start customizing your wiki to your needs.

Use the button above to add more pages to your wiki and create the hierarchy that best organizes your content.

Use the breadcrumbs located above the title to navigate inside your pages. It's easy to get lost in a big wiki without them.

You can also use the Sandbox for more demo content and generally a place to experiment with your wiki's features. 

Learn more on how to use XWiki with the Getting Started Guide.

Extend your wiki

To extend the power and functionalities of your wiki with the features that you need, head over to the Extension Manager where you can search for and install extensions.

To browse through the 900+ community contributed extensions available for XWiki, head over to the Extensions Repository.

Create your application

Go beyond the available extensions and define the structure of your data based on your needs, creating your own applications with App Within Minutes (AWM). 

AWM will take care of making it easy for you and your users to create and manage the data.
