Skin:WikimediaApiPortal

WikimediaApiPortal is a skin for MediaWiki created by the Wikimedia Foundation Platform Engineering Team in 2020 as part of the API Gateway initiative. The skin is designed to mimic the look and feel of conventional developer portals by incorporating header and sidebar navigation elements and following the Wikimedia Design Style Guide. The skin uses the Bootstrap CSS framework, OOUI library, and Mustache templates. The skin was created for use with the Wikimedia API Portal, so some elements of the design such as the site logo and footer are specific to Wikimedia.
