WakkaWiki (often shortened as Wakka) is a very small wiki engine written in PHP, that is easy to install, hack and
maintain. It was originally developed by Hendrik Mans (creator of the PlanetCrap discussion community) with help
from Carlo Zottmann.
As of September 29, 2004, its website was down and the project stopped, although a large community of contributors
was still actively posting bugfixes, extensions and new functionality. Wakka saw most of its contributors migrate to
one of its forks.
The focus of WakkaWiki was on simple and extensible code. Thanks to the simplicity of its design it spawned
several forks, sharing the same ancestry but pursuing their own vision. Most of these forks include scripts to upgrade
from previous WakkaWiki installations. WakkaWiki has spawned at least five forks: CitiWiki, UniWakka,
WackoWiki, WikiNi and WikkaWiki.
