What is Ponydocs?

Ponydocs is Splunk's MediaWiki-powered documentation platform. We build and deliver our official product documentation on this platform (you're looking at it right now), and have made it available to the community at large as an open source project.

Check out this blog post about the Ponydocs beta release by our lead developer and Web Dev manager, Ashley for an overview.

You can find the public source for Ponydocs at http://splunk.github.com/ponydocs/

Note: Installation and configuration information is currently packaged with the code.

Why open source?

We are making Ponydocs available to the open source community because we think our docs platform is awesome, and also because we want to take advantage of the open source community's powers of bug detection and resolution (through issue tracking), testing (through others eating our cooking) and potential future hire determination (through excellent individuals providing quality patches to the project).
