The first wiki was Ward's wiki, a.k.a. The Portland Pattern Repository, invented by Ward Cunningham.

Content

Ward's Wiki primarily contains information on Design Patterns, including AntiPatterns and AmeliorationPatterns. It also contains a history of design patterns. It also contains a discussion on a variety of related areas of OO knowledge, e.g. discussions on Agile Methods.

Legacy

It provided the inspiration for this course.

In addition, this wiki provided much of the initial motivation for GangofFour1994 text that provided the first major published text on design patterns.
