Wiki 3.0
Description
Wiki 3.0 is the code name of a new project to build a new modular wiki UI using modern web technologies, which will support multiple backends (including of course XWiki) to store Wiki data.
This Wiki UI aims to be on par in terms of UI/UX to Notion, support both standard Wiki features but also structured wiki features.
