MindTouch Deki isn't just a really easy to use application. It's also a platform. Similar to CMS web frameworks like Drupal, Mambo, Joomla and DotNetNuke, MindTouch Deki delivers a remarkably extensible platform, but it's a wiki in nature; therefore making it community-centric and significantly easier for end-users to participate. Also, it has a complete application programming interface (API) for programmers. We've actually built the entire application on our API. This means everything MindTouch Deki can do can be accessed via the API. Moreover, with our innovative web-services extension model you can extend MindTouch Deki in any programming language. If you're a programmer, you should investigate the MindTouch supported developer community at http://Developer.MindTouch.com.

Screenshots

These screenshots should give you a first impression how DekiWiki looks like. Remember: The look of many Wikis can be changed by stylesheets or templates so these are only examples.

WYSIWYG editor

MindTouch Deki has a WYSIWYG, or rich text, editor similar to a light-weight word processor. There is no arcane or non-standard markup language. You can copy/paste from office documents or other web pages. Linking is as easy as selecting the text and navigating to the page or attachment you wish to link. You need not memorize the path or learn a new language. You'll find MindTouch Deki to be very familiar.

Permissions

MindTouch Deki has one of the most advanced permission systems available. MindTouch Deki administrators can make wikis public or private, anonymous or not. There is user groups support. Users can permission entire hierarchies to create private or non-editable workspaces or permission single pages. MindTouch Deki has built in support for LDAP, Active Directory, Drupal, Wordpress, and Joomla.

Finding and Organizing Content

MindTouch Deki provides many ways to organize content. Hierarchies allow users to define a taxonomy of pages. This is a very natural way to organize things. Everyone understands a family tree.

MindTouch Deki also allows tagging. Tag folksonomies are wonderfully useful when using systems with multiple users. With MindTouch Deki a user can use key word tags, date and time tags, and define tag categories.

As users add content to MindTouch Deki the time the content is added is tracked. There are many ways to browse content chronologically. We call these chronologies. Users can follow recent changes chronologically throughout an entire wiki site, on a per page basis, or based on individual users' contributions. This makes it very easy to discover content and track what's going on in the wiki. Date and time tags also provide another way of organizing and finding information chronologically.

If users are especially interested in some pages they can create a watchlist of pages. With a watchlist it's easy to track topics of interest or pet projects.

Another of the many ways Deki Wiki is unique is that it comes with an enterprise strength search engine named Lucene. Lucene is developed by the Apache Foundation. Lucene is a powerful search engine that is employed by many high performance enterprise-class search tools. MindTouch Deki uses Lucene to index all pages and most common file types. Finding what you're looking for in pages, files or tags is just a search away with MindTouch Deki.

Subscribe! MindTouch Deki generates RSS feeds in a number of ways. Users may subscribe to the entire wiki site, individual users' contributions, their watchlist, or the watchlists' of other users.

File and Image Attachments

Creating pages and attaching files is just a click away. Users of MindTouch Deki can attach documents and images to individual pages. Images are presented in an attractive image gallery. At a glance you one can see who edited pages or attached files, when it was done, and read a description of the action that is automatically generated or manually provided..

Nothing is ever lost in MindTouch Deki. Every edit is tracked and versioned. Users can compare versions of pages. Similarly, file attachments are versioned. When a user links to a file the link will always point to the most recent version of the attached file. Likewise, if a user renames a page all links to this page will be properly maintained.
