**Semantic MediaWiki** (a.k.a. SMW) is a free, open-source extension to [MediaWiki](https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki) – the wiki software that
powers Wikipedia – that lets you store and query data within the wiki's pages.
Semantic MediaWiki is also a full-fledged framework, in conjunction with
many spinoff extensions, that can turn a wiki into a powerful and flexible
knowledge management system. All data created within SMW can easily be
published via the [Semantic Web](https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Semantic_Web),
allowing other systems to use this data seamlessly.
For a better understanding of how Semantic MediaWiki works, have a look at [deployed in 5 min](https://vimeo.com/82255034)
and the [Sesame](https://vimeo.com/126392433), [Fuseki ](https://vimeo.com/118614078) triplestore video, or
browse the [wiki](https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org) for a more comprehensive introduction.
## Requirements
Semantic MediaWiki requires MediaWiki and its dependencies, such as PHP.
Supported MediaWiki, PHP and database versions depend on the version of Semantic MediaWiki.
See the [compatibility matrix](docs/COMPATIBILITY.md) for details.
## Installation
The recommended way to install Semantic MediaWiki is by using [Composer][composer]. See the detailed
[installation guide](docs/INSTALL.md) as well as the information on [compatibility](docs/COMPATIBILITY.md).
## Documentation
Most of the documentation can be found on the [Semantic MediaWiki wiki](https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org).
A small core of documentation also comes bundled with the software itself. This documentation is minimalistic
and less explanatory than what can be found on the SMW wiki. It is however always kept up to date, and applies
to the version of the code it comes bundled with. The most important files are linked below.
* [User documentation](docs/README.md)
* [Technical documentation](docs/technical/README.md)
* [Hacking Semantic MediaWiki](docs/architecture/README.md)
