This document presents a slideshow on Smalltalk Wiki, an open source wiki application built using Smalltalk. It discusses the object oriented design, extensibility through components, and dialect independence. The slideshow covers various aspects of the wiki including editing and navigation for users, templates for administrators, and testing, implementation and extensions for developers. The goal of Smalltalk Wiki is to provide a reusable content management system.
