10 XWiki is an open-source platform for creating, managing, and collaborating on structured and unstructured content. It functions as a powerful wiki engine with advanced features like version control, rights management, scripting, and extensible applications. XWiki enables users to build knowledge bases, documentation platforms, or collaborative intranets, all within a customizable and web-based environment.
