PmWiki, developed by Patrick Michaud, is designed to be easy to install and customize as an engine for creating professional web sites with one to any number of content authors.
The software focuses on ease-of-use, so people with little IT or wiki experience will be able to put it to use. Despite having such low barriers to install a basic wiki, the software is also designed to be extremely extensible and customizable.

A highly customizable wiki engine
by nunobaba
Since I started digging into the wiki world, I tried various engines like MediaWiki or TWiki. All of them are good, complex enough to stay in front of the your computer over nights, and powerful. But on a web design point of view, most of them are more rigid than PmWiki. It's the only one I know able to deal with a quite long list of features and to offer easy customizable templates. Without I would never have developed Playgreen.org [1] and Traduwiki.org [2].

Awesome
The PmWiki engine is the most flexible and powerful system to process markup for a wiki I have seen. The way PHP is leveraged in the core markup system is ingenious.
It is very easy to customize and integrate into third party applications. The codebase is small and very well documented and there are lots of plugins.
Don't let the plain look and feel fool you. This is a serious tool for serious developers. There is nothing I was
