Wiki Pages
Wiki pages are collaborative web-based platforms that allow users to create, edit, and link content in a simple markup language, enabling knowledge sharing and documentation within teams or communities. They are commonly used for internal documentation, project wikis, and knowledge bases, with features like version history and access controls. Popular examples include MediaWiki (used by Wikipedia), Confluence, and Notion's wiki functionality.
Developers should learn to use wiki pages for documenting codebases, APIs, and project processes, as they facilitate team collaboration and reduce knowledge silos in agile or remote environments. They are essential for creating living documentation that stays updated with project changes, improving onboarding and reducing repetitive questions. Use cases include software development wikis, technical specifications, and incident response playbooks.
