MediaWiki API Demos

The MediaWiki Action API is a web service that allows access to some wiki-features like authentication, page operations, and search. It can provide meta information about the wiki and the logged-in user. This repository contains code snippets and demo apps in various programming languages to assist developers for easy use of various modules of the API.
