So... it's a CMS?
Ok that may be a bit of a snarky way to say it, but this doesn't really seem much different than a CMS -- a CMS that doesn't necessarily have the baggage of the old stalwarts, but not that different.
Am I missing something?
- troymc 15y agoA typical wiki is a collection of pages, with each page containing an unstructured blob of text. Wikis like Wagn and Semantic Mediawiki are an attempt to find a middle ground between a typical wiki (where each content page is unstructured) and a database-driven CMS (where each content page is a view of a row of a database). The idea is that you get the benefits of a wiki, where you can build as you go, plus the benefits of a database, because you can add structure (new fields in content pages) as you need it. The added structure gives you the ability to create new pages using queries (e.g. a list of all country names in Africa), rather than manually (as is the case for a typical "List of ____" page on Wikipedia).
- cyrus_ 15y agoIts a wiki that uses a card metaphor, not a CMS. You could maybe use it as a CMS.
