12 years after the initial launch we relaunched WikiMatrix in a new design and an updated feature set. WikiMatrix allows you to compare various wiki software based on their feature sets. A wizard helps newcomers to narrow down what they need.

The goal was to build a lightweight site that's low maintenance but helpful to its users. It's made with the PHP Slim framework and uses an SQLite database to store the data.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Very slick! Have you thought about generalizing this to compare other things?

I could see this being used as a framework to build other matrix comparison sites.

Yes, the whole thing is multi-site capable. We also relaunched https://www.forummatrix.org using the same code. We have a couple of other sites that are still waiting to get the relaunch.

We also have a few ideas for other topics, but starting a new site requires a lot of initial research, so it's nothing we can do lightly.
