It is written in PHP and uses an underlying MySQL relational database management system. Its logo symbolizes how its markup language uses double brackets ("","") to link articles together. MediaWiki is capable of interfacing with other, optional programs to improve performance and capabilities. Support for memcached, the Squid cache system, and TeX math rendering are all available in the current version. An extension and hook system allows users to add their own features and program interfaces.
