), using SemVer versioning schema.What should I customize? What can break?
You will need to learn a bit of Django to customize django-wiki.
The simplest is to override templates and create your own template tags. Do not make your own hard copy of this repository in order to fiddle with internal parts of the wiki, this strategy will lead you to lose out on future updates with highly improved features, plugins and security fixes.
You can also override the whole Bootstrap theming. At present, you're best off maintaining your own Bootstrap SCSS and hard-copying, then overriding django-wiki's rules.
All Python views are class-based. However for most cases overriding views and URLs shouldn't be the best place to start since most customization can be achieved through plugins, templates and SCSS.
Contributions are welcome! ❤️

Django-wiki is a rewrite of django-simplewiki, a project from 2009 that aimed to be a base system for a wiki. It proposed that the user should customize the wiki by overwriting templates, but soon learned that the only customization that really took place was that people forked the entire project. We don't want that for django-wiki, we want it to be modular and extendable.
As of now, Django has existed for too long without a proper wiki application. The dream of django-wiki is to become a contestant alongside Mediawiki, so that Django developers can stick to the Django platform even when facing tough challenges such as implementing a wiki.

? Because when we tried
pip install wiki
, it returned "No distributions at all found
for wiki", so we had to make up for that! ...oh, and django-wiki was occupied.There is a docker container available here: https://github.com/riotkit-org/docker-django-wiki
Original source of inspiration back in 2009 was django-cms, and since then Wagtail has also done a tremendous amount of work to promote Django models as a fundamental structure and enabler for application design.
