## What it is
CTF Wiki is a community-maintained, open documentation site that systematically teaches Capture The Flag (CTF) cybersecurity competition skills across categories like pwn, reverse engineering, crypto, web, mobile, and misc. It is built with MkDocs and deployed at ctf-wiki.org, aimed at helping beginners learn CTF in a structured way.

## Use cases
- learn ctf basics as a beginner
- study pwn and binary exploitation techniques
- learn reverse engineering for ctf challenges
- understand ctf cryptography challenges
- find a systematic ctf learning roadmap
- prepare for a capture the flag competition

## When to choose
- you want a free, community-driven, systematic introduction to CTF topics
- you need structured learning material covering pwn, reverse, crypto, web, and misc
- you prefer open documentation that is continuously updated with new techniques

## When to avoid
- you need a hands-on practice platform with live challenges rather than documentation
- you want commercial, certified, or book-format security training
- you need professional penetration testing methodology beyond CTF scope

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: documentation, security, penetration-testing, reverse-engineering
- domain: security, tutorials, developer-tools
- platform: python
- tags: ctf, capture-the-flag, wiki, pwn, cryptography, mkdocs, hacking-tutorial, web-server
