Ask HN: Markdown-capable wiki software?
6 points by avree on July 7, 2011 | hide | past | favorite | 4 comments
I'm trying to find a good wiki tool that is Markdown-capable and has access control options to hold design documents and general information. Google Sites doesn't work for this. Any suggestions?


http://www.WikiMatrix.org compares wiki software. http://goo.gl/saome shows the "Top 25 Wikis" Markdown support.

It's the wiki that powers Github, so you use it with Git and it's markdown enabled. I thought it was a pretty great tool


I think Ikiwiki will do Markdown. Have not used Ikiwiki myself, but was quite impressed with their page on security, which is a good sign of overall competence.


I use ikiwiki extensively and it's exactly what you want, and incredibly awesome and fully featured.
