XWiki Standard

XWiki Standard

Open-source enterprise wiki platform

Description

Team documents scattered across network drives, chat logs and a heap of Word files mean hunting through everything to find a proposal from three months ago, and a new hire has nowhere to start. XWiki gathers them into a structured wiki that can extend itself into applications — not just pages, but field-based tables, approval flows and internal systems.

Open-source and free, self-hosted on your own server, over twenty years in the making and used by many large companies as a knowledge base and intranet. It works as a Confluence alternative.

Features



WYSIWYG editing: write without learning wiki syntax, laying out directly in a rich-text editor while the structured data underneath is preserved.

Structured applications: beyond documents, define data types with fields and build forms and lists, turning the wiki into a lightweight internal app platform.

Fine-grained permissions: control who can view and edit per space and per page, with user groups so a large team's material is opened or locked as needed.

Versioning and collaboration: every change is kept in history and can be rolled back, with comments and annotations making it clear who changed what.

Extensible ecosystem: a rich extension marketplace adds import/export, full-text search, charts and calendars on demand.
