Creole

May 5, 2022 - Reading time: ~1 minute

Creole (or WikiCreole) is a lightweight markup language that aims to standardize the Wiki syntax commonly used across the different Wiki systems. It is therefore expected that a document written with the Creole syntax should render correctly in most Wiki engines.

More information can be found on their official website, wikicreole.
