Install the wiki UI
At this point your wiki is empty, i.e it doesn't contain any wiki page. Since applications in XWiki are done in wiki pages you also don't any application available (e.g. Blog, User Directory, User Profiles, etc). In addition, you wiki doesn't contain any user.
Thus the final step is to fill your Wiki with some initial content (i.e. wiki pages).
This is the job of the Distribution Wizard which automatically starts when you are browsing your new XWiki instance for the first time.
The default distribution is a fully configured wiki that you can use as a starting point for creating your own wiki content. It provides the following:
- A Blog
- A Dashboard
- A Panels Application
- Search
- Administration features (Access rights, Group and users management, etc)
- ... and much more
Manually Import Wiki Pages
Alternatively, you could skip the Distribution Wizard (this can be useful for example if you're offline and wish to install XWiki). However you'd need to perform either of the following operations:
- Create new pages by hand
- Import the default Wiki that we are providing as a XAR file by using the Import feature. Since there's no Admin user created at this point, you'll need to log in as superadmin to be able to perform this import.
