+
+Ikiwiki is a **wiki compiler**. It converts wiki pages into HTML pages
+suitable for publishing on a website. Ikiwiki stores pages and history in a
+[[revision_control_system|rcs]] such as [[Subversion|rcs/svn]] or [[rcs/Git]].
+There are many other [[features]], including support for
+[[blogging|blog]] and [[podcasting|podcast]], as well as a large
+array of [[plugins]].
+
+Alternatively, think of ikiwiki as a particularly flexible static
+site generator with some dynamic features.
+
+
+
+## using ikiwiki
+
+[[Setup]] has a tutorial for setting up ikiwiki, or you can read the
+[[man_page|usage]]. There are some [[examples]] of things you can do
+with ikiwiki, and some [[tips]]. Basic documentation for ikiwiki plugins
+and syntax is provided [[here|ikiwiki]]. The [[forum]] is open for
+discussions.
+
+All wikis are supposed to have a [[sandbox]], so this one does too.
+
+This site generally runs the latest release of ikiwiki; currently, it runs
+ikiwiki [[!version ]].
+
+## developer resources
+
+The [[RoadMap]] describes where the project is going.
+[[Bugs]], [[TODO]] items, [[wishlist]] items, and [[patches|patch]]
+can be submitted and tracked using this wiki.
+
+Ikiwiki is developed by [[Joey]] and many contributors,
+and is [[FreeSoftware]].
