Applications

As you've learnt from the Programming feature it's possible to put code inside XWiki pages. You combine several pages together to form an application. In other words an application is simple a self-contained set of XWiki pages. You can export these pages into a single archive file named a XAR (it stands for Xwiki Archive) which can then be reimported into other wikis. This is a very nice way to create reusable applications.

Applications offer a powerful way to create advanced content within wiki pages. The Event Calendar and the Photos Albums are good examples of XWiki applications.

This is a list of packaged applications you can import in your wiki, coming straight from the Code Zone. To learn more about the Import/Export process please check the Admin Guide's Import/Export page.
