Summary
This tool takes the bland and boring wiki input box and transforms it into a proper code editor with several interactive and assistive features. Having talked to several iGEM teams this year, and years past, one of the issues they lamented over was the issue of entering code into the wiki. The bland and simple text input on each page made developing interactive and pretty wikis a real hassle. Due to this many teams developed their code externally and then transfered it in, costing them time and effort. We have changed that.

The boring wiki input box
By taking advantage of Google's easy to use extension system for the Chrome Browser, we devised a powerful and lightweight extension that transforms the wiki editor on whatever page you choose to edit; be it in the future in 2020 or now in 2015. The extension is easily downloaded and then drag-and-dropped into the Chrome browser, to install. Then its working!
For more information, the source code, and the extension go to Our Github Page.
