'''ikiwiki''' is a [[wiki]] compiler, a {{tag|Wiki Engine|wiki engine}}, particularly suited to [[:Category:Personal|personal]] wikis, project wikis or [[:Category:Blog|blogs]].  It is released for [https://ikiwiki.info/freesoftware/ free] as {{tag|open source}} ({{tag|FOSS}}) under the {{tag|GNU General Public License|GNU General Public License version 2 (or later)}} (GPL v2+).  It converts wiki pages into html pages suitable for publishing on a website.  Unlike most other wiki engines, ikiwiki stores pages and history as plain text files in a standard {{tag|revision control}} system[https://ikiwiki.info/rcs/] such as {{tag|Subversion}} or {{tag|Git}},[https://ikiwiki.info/rcs/git/] rather than some specialised internal page history format.

The {{tag|GreatFeature|unique feature}} with ikiwiki is that it can be [[edit]]ed via commit to a repository, in addition to the standard web editing (though web editing can also be disabled); which makes ikiwiki truly collaborative.  It is even possible to run an ikiwiki in private, by copying the wiki content onto another server; and you even do not need the ikiwiki software on that server!

The ikiwiki wiki engine is written in {{tag|Perl}} by [https://ikiwiki.info/users/joey/ Joey] (and others), and there is a plugin available that supports {{tag|LaTeX}} {{tag|math}}, along with other plugins to support other common wiki syntaxes.  ikiwiki supports using Git, Subversion, {{tag|Mercurial}}, {{tag|Monotone}}, {{tag|darcs}}, or {{tag|CVS}} version control systems.  ikiwiki can also be used to build {{tag|weblog}}s.

ikiwiki will run on ANY [[:Category:Operating system|operating system]].  Whilst it supports nigh-on all of the established [[:Category:Wiki syntax|syntax]] and protocols (some such as [[CamelCase]] requiring additional plugins), it does not support localisation, its interface being available in only English.
