Product
Wikimedia Product writes software for the Wikimedia movement. The Discovery team works on search functions and maps. The Editing team maintains the core editing tools, including the visual editor. The Reading team improves the experience for readers and casual contributors, especially on mobile platforms. The Community Technology team supports active editors through the Community Wishlist project.
Technology
Wikimedia Technology maintains the technical infrastructure that is used by Wikipedia and other projects. In addition to operations and security, they also support research and the Tool Labs for community developers working on tools and bots that help users maintain and use wikis.
Technical Collaboration
The Technical Collaboration group at the Wikimedia Foundation helps developers to build features in collaboration with our communities. We are organized in two teams based on primary audiences: Community Liaisons (editors) and Developer Relations (developers).
