Wikifunctions
Wikimedia open library of reusable code
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wikifunctions is a collaboratively edited catalog of computer functions to enable the creation, modification, and reuse of source code.[2][3] It is closely related to Abstract Wikipedia, an extension of Wikidata to create a language-independent version of Wikipedia using its structured data.[4][5][6] Provisionally named Wikilambda,[7] the definitive name of Wikifunctions was announced on 22 December 2020 following a naming contest.[8] Wikifunctions is the first Wikimedia project to launch since Wikidata in 2012.[9] After three years of development, Wikifunctions officially launched in July 2023.[10]
