The wiki/app is the html file itself. If you add / remove content, you get another html file that contains the wiki app and the added / modified content.
No need for complicated applications, compatible wherever a browser runs (All OS), always compatible cos html (the raw html is human readable). No proprietary format lock in.
For the strict meaning: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quine_(computing)
For mindblowing stuff:
Quine Relay - A Ruby Program that generates Rust program that generates Scala program that generates ...(through 128 languages in total)... REXX program that generates the original Ruby code again. https://github.com/mame/quine-relay
Feather Wiki Nest is the thing I am looking forward too. It would be a single application, start it and forget it, your wiki just works. That's immense awesomeness!
itty bitty is a great tool to store stuff in urls with compression! http://itty.bitty.site/
A plugin for Feather Wiki to export to itty bitty would be awesome. I've personally did some experiments. I'll share the finding to the Feather Wiki author to give him an idea and also add an issue for a plug in request, so some hackers can work on it...
I've created an issue at itty bitty github some time ago so that wikis like tiddly wikis and feather wiki could be fully compatible:

There is also link to an example in that issue.
