# Welcome to Gitit! Gitit is a wiki program written in Haskell. It uses [HAppS][] for the web server and [pandoc][] for markup processing. Pages and uploaded files are stored in a [git][] or [darcs][] repository and may be modified either by using the VCS's command-line tools or through the wiki's web interface. By default, pandoc's extended version of markdown is used as a markup language, but reStructuredText can also be used. Pages can be exported in a number of different formats, including LaTeX, RTF, OpenOffice ODT, and MediaWiki markup. Gitit can be configured to display TeX math (using [jsMath][]) and highlighted source code (using [highlighting-kate][]). You can edit this page by double-clicking on it, or by clicking on the "edit" tab at the top of the screen. You can make a link to another wiki page like this: `[French Cheeses]()`. This will produce a link like this: [French Cheeses](). Note that the names of wiki pages need not be in CamelCase, and they may contain spaces. Wiki pages may be organized into directories. Use the slash ("/") character between directories and page names or subdirectories: `[Wines/Pinot Noir]()`. To create a new wiki page, just create a link to it and follow the link. Help is always available through the "Help" link in the sidebar.
