WabiSabi is a fast experimental Wiki engine in 285 lines of PHP. The FeatureSet places it in the same ballpark as the original WikiWikiWeb, only with a modern bent. The name comes from a Japanese aesthetic that is reflected in the project's CurrentGoals.

This website is also about WikiEngines and WikiTechnology in general. It is an open wiki, as it should be. If in doubt, see WhenToContribute. The WikiSandbox will give you an idea of the supported syntax.

If you are asking what license this software is released under, you are asking the wrong question.

The archive may lag behind the online version at times. Be patient. :)

Please keep in mind that WabiSabi was created out of academic curiosity. It may or may not be suitable for a production website. Especially as it is still new, so it probably has quite a few bugs and security holes. That said, I am trying to make it useful, so feel free to leave QuestionsAndFeedback.
