django-wiki
A Django-based wiki app with Markdown, revisions, and plugins
django-wiki is an extensible wiki application for Django that provides a full-featured knowledge base you can integrate into an existing Django project. It focuses on a strong, familiar web UI while keeping customization and extension within standard Django patterns.
Key Features
- Markdown-based content editing with a built-in web interface
- Built-in revision system for page history and rollback
- Hierarchical page structure for organizing content
- Permissions and access control suitable for teams and organizations
- Pluggable architecture for extending functionality without forking
- Template and theming customization via Django templates and SCSS
Use Cases
- Internal team documentation and engineering knowledge bases
- Product or project documentation embedded into a Django site
- Community or organization wikis with structured permissions
Limitations and Considerations
- Customization typically requires Django knowledge (templates, URLs, plugins)
- Markdown rendering is a core part of the system and is not intended to be swapped out
django-wiki is a solid choice when you want a wiki tightly integrated with Django’s models, authentication, and admin ecosystem. Its extension points and stable APIs make it well-suited for long-lived documentation deployments within Django projects.
