11 | XWiki is first and foremost a standard wiki. You might want to read up on the [[definition of a wiki>>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikiwiki]]. This section of the documentation will show you how to use all the basic features of XWiki. However XWiki is also a [[second generation wiki>>platform:Main.SecondGenerationWiki]] with powerful programming features which are documented in the [[Developer's Guide>>platform:DevGuide.WebHome]]. | ||
12 | <p/> | ||
13 | Start by reading the [[Getting Started Guide>>GettingStarted.WebHome]]. | ||
14 | <p/> | ||
15 | At the same time as you follow the guides below we recommend that you try out what you learn on the [[Playground>>http://playground.xwiki.org]]. This is a XWiki instance that we've set up for you so that you can easily discover the joys of using a wiki. | ||

17 | After you've learnt what a wiki is and how it works, you might want to create your own XWiki: | ||
18 | * You can [[download>>xwiki:Main.Download]] XWiki and [[install>>platform:AdminGuide.Installation]] it on your machine. | ||
19 | * If you're a non-profit organization you can request an online wiki to be created for you on [[MyXWiki>>http://myxwiki.org]]. | ||
20 | * If you're a commercial company you can buy some hosting from [[XWiki SAS>>http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Services/Hosting]]. | ||
