The '''WikiWikiWeb''' is the world's first and longest-running wiki. Its original wiki engine was developed in the {{tag|Perl}} programming language in 1994 by [[WardCunningham]], and was based on a HyperCard stack that Cunningham designed for {{tag|collaboration}} with his former colleagues at Tektronix in Portland, Oregon. It is now part of [[Ward Cunningham]]'s [[Federated wiki]] system.
