What is it?

WackoWiki is a wiki engine built in PHP that aims to be lightweight and simple to set up. It supports multilingual content, WYSIWYG-style editing, and per-page access rights (ACLs), so you can control who can view or change individual pages.

The engine also includes design themes (skins), file uploads, and email notifications. It runs on PHP 8.3 through 8.5 and uses MariaDB, MySQL, or SQLite as its database.

The project has a user guide, a forum, and an issue tracker on its own website for questions and bug reports.
