About PmWiki

PmWiki is a simple, flat-file wiki engine that lets you build and edit websites collaboratively using just a web browser and PHP. It stores all content in plain text files, so there is no need for MySQL or any other database server. The system is designed to be easy to install and maintain, making it a solid choice for small teams or individuals who want a straightforward content management system.

PmWiki supports a wide range of features including page history, password protection, uploads, and a flexible markup syntax. It runs on any standard LAMP or WAMP stack, integrates with LDAP for authentication, and can be extended through hundreds of available recipes and skins. The software is actively maintained by its creator Patrick Michaud and the PmWiki community.

This tool is best suited for technical users who want a lightweight wiki without the overhead of a database. It is open source under the GPL license, free to use, and has a strong focus on security and simplicity. PmWiki has been around since 2002 and remains a reliable option for knowledge bases and internal documentation sites.
