HOW DOKUWIKI CAME TO BE.
DokuWiki markup is the wiki syntax used by DokuWiki, a PHP-based wiki engine created by Andreas Gohr in 2004. DokuWiki’s design philosophy: no database, just flat files on disk. Each wiki page is a plain text .dokuwiki file that admins can edit in vi, back up with tar, or version with git. The syntax resembles MediaWiki but simpler: `**bold**`, `//italic//`, `[[links]]`, `======headings======`.
DokuWiki found a devoted user base in small teams, open-source projects, and academic groups that wanted a wiki without database complexity. Its ~80 000 active installations in 2026 make it the second-most-deployed wiki engine after MediaWiki.

Frequently Asked Questions
DOKUWIKI (DokuWiki Markup) is a document format used to store paginated text, with optional formatting, tables, images, hyperlinks, headers and footers. It sits in the documents & text family and is typically associated with a specific office suite or publishing pipeline that defined the format and ships the canonical reader.
Modern office suites — Microsoft Word, Google Docs, LibreOffice Writer, Apple Pages — open most DOKUWIKI files with reasonable fidelity. If your installed software does not support DOKUWIKI, convert to DOCX or PDF first using KaijuConverter; both open in virtually every reader, including free online viewers.
Upload the DOKUWIKI to KaijuConverter and pick DOCX, PDF, ODT, RTF, HTML, Markdown, or plain text. Our pipeline runs LibreOffice headlessly plus pandoc for text formats — the same engines behind professional document pipelines. Styles, tables, images, and hyperlinks survive the conversion intact.
Yes, to a high degree. Standard fonts, headings, lists, tables, images, hyperlinks and page structure transfer cleanly. Custom fonts substitute to the closest match if not embedded; obscure layout features unique to DOKUWIKI (frames, legacy macros) may flatten to static content in the target format.
