Getting Started
You can check what projects built using XWiki have done. Web sites like Curriki or Best Ventes are also good examples of what can be done with XWiki.
To see XWiki in action, you can download and install one of the XWiki products listed above or create your own XWiki instance on the myxwiki.org community farm (it is regularly updated to the latest released version of XWiki Enterprise) or on the XWiki Cloud Farm (from XWiki SAS) (there's a free plan and it takes only 5 minutes to create a new wiki).
