| 5 | Scripting lets you build web applications at the XWiki page level, without compiling code or deploying software components. You write scripting syntax alongside wiki markup inside the content of a page (see the [[script syntax for the XWiki 2.1 syntax>>Documentation.UserGuide.Features.XWikiSyntax.WebHome]]). | ||

| 7 | XWiki integrates [[JSR-223>>http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=223]] scripting, giving pages access to XWiki's programming API. This means a page can query, read, and manipulate the wiki and its documents directly, rather than relying on a separately deployed component. | ||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | Scripts run through dedicated macros, one per supported language. XWiki provides a generic [[Script Macro>>extensions:Extension.Script Macro]] plus one dedicated macro per scripting language. | ||
