Wiki in Metropolia

Most of them the workspaces are open for the entire staff and students of the school. You can see the list of the workspaces on the front page of the Metropolia wiki at https://wiki.metropolia.fiThe Metropolia wiki is operating on the platform of Confluence. You may study the basics of the software in short in the Quick Guide.
