His code sidesteps all the important design decisions. The pages are not saved, there is no markup, there is no reversion history, and so on. It seems to be an excellent tool to teach students web application basics. I also like his basic documentation and his suggestions for improvements at the end of the page.

This is definitely better than starting with terse and cryptic code for a very small wiki. (Remember the SmallestWiki contest?)
