wikind - A wiki for R!

This is an R package which, when installed, immediately gives the R user the functionality of a simple wiki. The natural environment for such a wiki is Shiny, the current best framework for interactive R apps.

Goals Creates a simple wiki wiki Works in Shiny Implemented in R, to avoid the baggage of a cross-language implementation Uses Markdown for page mark-up; specifically, the pandoc variant of Markdown, used by Shiny Uses git for underlying change management RESTful architecture Light-weight; e.g., flat-file storage, not some database Distributed as an R package * Fully open source

Current Status * Still fleshing out the requirements and design.

Questions and Issues Can a wiki really work inside the Shiny package? Or is the full-blown Shiny server* required?
