===========

Federated wiki client-side javascript as a npm module.

Goals

=====

Over its first two years the Smallest Federated Wiki (SFW) project explored

many ways that a wiki could embrace HTML5 and related technologies. Here

we will cautiously reorganize this work as small independent modules that

favor ongoing innovation.

We proceed by dividing SFW first into large pieces and then these into

smaller pieces as we simplify and regularize the communications between them.

We now favor the node.js module and event conventions, dependency injection,

and increased separation between the DOM and the logic that manages it.

Federated wiki's single-page application reads page content from many sources

and writes updates to a few. Read-write server backends are maintained in

ruby (sinatra) and node (express). Read-only servers have been realized

with static files and cgi scripts. Encouraging experiments have exploited

exotic service architectures such as CCNx content-addressable networks.

Participation

=============

We're happy to take issues or pull requests regarding the goals and

their implementation within this code.

A wider-ranging conversation is documented in the GitHub ReadMe of the

founding project, [SFW](https://github.com/WardCunningham/Smallest-Federated-Wiki/blob/master/ReadMe.md).
