PukiWiki is wiki software written in PHP, and is widely used by Japanese wikis.[1][2][3] It was forked from YukiWiki [ja; ja], originally developed by Yuuki Hiroshi [ja; ja; 結城浩]. Since version 1.4, PukiWiki Development Team became the developer of the software.

Features

Originating from Japan, PuwiWiki offers better DBCS support than most wiki software. It also has a layout optimized for mobile use since many use their phones to browse wikis in Japan.[4]

PukiWiki can run on PHP 4, 5, 7 or 8. It supports interwiki links and extensions, similar to MediaWiki.[3][4]

PukiWiki is written such that it uses PHP with a series of text files, hence does not require a database to operate, and does not support databases natively. However, support could be added through extensions for MySQL, SQLite, Oracle Oci8 and PostgreSQL.

Derivative Versions

  • xpWiki - Developed by nao-pon and forked from PukiWiki version 1.4.7, and aims at integration with XOOPS.[5]

  • PukiWiki Plus! - Derivative version with enhanced localization features.[7]
    • PukiWiki Advance - Forked from PukiWiki Plus!.[8]
  • PyukiWiki - Derivative version written in Perl.[9]
