### Motivation
Frappe Wiki, like many of our products was developed for our own needs. We were looking for a simple, clean, open source wiki to write documentation for ERPNext, but due to a lack of good options, we decided to write our own from scratch!
Our goal was clear: create an open-source wiki that provides a delightful experience for writers and readers. Today, we use Frappe Wiki for all sorts of internal things – user manuals, company policies, you name it! The easy-to-use interface and simple editing features make it perfect for anyone on our team.
### Key Features
- **Create Wiki Pages**: Easily create and organize wiki pages to manage and share knowledge systematically.
Author Content in Markdown: Write and format content effortlessly using Markdown syntax, ensuring a clean and readable structure.
- **Set-up Controlled Wiki Updates**: Implement workflows to review and approve edits before publishing, ensuring content accuracy and consistency.
- **Add Attachments**: Attach relevant files and documents directly to wiki pages for better context and resource sharing.
- **Table of Contents**: Automatically generate a navigable table of contents for enhanced readability and structure.
- **Custom Script Support via Wiki Settings**: Customize wiki behavior and extend functionality using custom scripts configured in Wiki Settings.
### Under the Hood
- [**Frappe Framework**](https://github.com/frappe/frappe): A full-stack web application framework.
- [**Ace Editor**](https://github.com/ajaxorg/ace): Ace is an embeddable code editor written in JavaScript.
- [**RedisSearch**](https://github.com/RediSearch/RediSearch): A powerful search and indexing engine built on top of Redis.
