Jon Curwin also had input of the creation and introduced many ways to bring Mahara to life.
Mahara provides users with blogs, a resume builder, a file manager and a view creator - a tool to help users create arrangements of their content in a particular way for others to see.
Mahara supports the Leap2A specification for importing and exporting data, allowing a user to take their content with them from one Mahara installation and import it into another[1]. Limited interoperability exists between Mahara and other systems supporting the Leap2A standard also[2].
