It's running on a fork of Instiki (which the nLab uses) that supports TikZ

No - it is running on the head of Instiki. The nLab is running on a custom fork of Instiki.

Ah, sorry. Wait, so the nLab supports TikZ? I didn't know that

They both support it, but they each evolved it independently.

TikZ on the nLab is fairly new: December 29, 2018.

TikZ in head instiki is also new: July 2019. I believe there was some cross-pollination.

Since we now have the beginnings of a couple of technical articles on the wiki, I created an index page called Glossary. It has three sections, one for "finished" articles (or at least somewhat finished), one for articles-in-progress, and another where people can add suggestions for new articles to be written. Everyone should feel free to enhance what's there. This page is listed in the navigation menu.

Cool, I just noted you there as you've already started one that's on the list.

Nope. February 2019.

Since tex2svg is a standalone web service, it enables TikZ support in other software, like the nCafé, as announced here.
