Priset för coolaste verktyget
Wikigemenskaper runt om i världen har olika användningsområden och tekniska behov. Våra volontärutvecklare är oftast de första som hittar och adresserar de användningsområdena. De experimenterar med nya idéer, skapar lokala och globala lösningar och förbättrar upplevelsen av vår programvara.
Det finns oerhört många bra verktyg där ute.
Det är dags att fira dem!
