==Description==
'''Canvas''' is a [http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/ ColdFusion] Wiki {{tag|Wiki Engine|engine}} built to allow for community-based editing of content.  It follows basic [[Wiki]] standards by allowing anyone to edit content, while keeping careful track of the history of each document added to the Wiki.  Canvas was built using [http://www.model-glue.com/ Model-Glue].


Canvas has a powerful API system that I am quite proud of. Page editing is supported in two ways. First off—there are a set of simple transformations that are done to your content. So for example, to support '''bold''' text, you simply do +text+. For ''italics'', you use underscores. Now—what is cool about this is that all of these rules are methods in one CFC.  So to add a new rule, you simply write the method.  The hint attribute is automatically picked up and displayed in the editing instructions text.
'''Canvas ColdFusion Wiki''' is the support [[wiki]] for the {{tag|Canvas}} wiki engine. It is hosted on RIAForge.org.
 
The API goes further though. Along with simple formatting rules, there is a feature I call "Variable Components".  These are components that can do more powerful things with your page. So for example, to put the last updated value in the page, you simply do {lastupdated}. As soon as Canvas sees {something}, it runs the render method on a CFC named something. As with the rendering methods, Canvas will read the documentation from the CFC and automatically display it to the end user.
 
==Requirements==
Canvas requires ColdFusion MX 7 and the Model-Glue framework.
 
==License==
Canvas ColdFusion is released under the [http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0 Apache License, Version 2].
