Steps

1. Download and then extract the XWiki WAR into a directory named xwiki and call it [XWIKI_HOME].
2. Create a permanent data directory on your host machine and call it [XWIKI_PERMDIR].
3. Ensure a database is available for XWiki. You can install and configure a relational database or, for quick testing, you can copy the HSQLDB JDBC JAR into [XWIKI_HOME]WEB-INF/lib.
4. Run the Jetty Docker container and mount both directories and enabling the required modules:

   docker run
   -v [XWIKI_HOME]:/var/lib/jetty/webapps/xwiki
   -v [XWIKI_PERMDIR]:/var/lib/jetty/xwiki-data
   -p 8080:8080
   jetty:12-jre21
   -Dxwiki.data.dir=/var/lib/jetty/xwiki-data
   --module=ee10-apache-jsp,ee10-deploy,ee10-websocket-jakarta

5. You can omit -Dxwiki.data.dir=/var/lib/jetty/xwiki-data from the command above if you instead set the permanent directory directly in XWiki's configuration:

   [XWIKI_HOME]/WEB-INF/xwiki.properties
   environment.permanentDirectory=/var/lib/jetty/xwiki-data

6. Once the container is running, open http://localhost:8080/xwiki in your browser to continue with the distribution wizard.
