| author | version | line-number | content |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | A flavor is a set of [[Extensions>>doc:documentation.xs.user.extensions.WebHome]] chosen to work together, so that a freshly installed wiki is usable on the first page you open instead of being empty. Where an extension adds one capability, a flavor decides what kind of wiki you end up with. | ||
| 2 | |||
| 3 | You choose one when the wiki is first set up: the [[Distribution Wizard>>doc:documentation.xs.admin.distribution-wizard.WebHome]] lists the flavors it can reach and [[installs the one you pick>>doc:documentation.xs.admin.distribution-wizard.install-flavor.WebHome]]. A standard installation offers the [[XWiki Standard Flavor>>doc:extensions:Extension.XWiki Standard Flavor.WebHome]], the general-purpose flavor maintained by the XWiki Development Team; the [[Extensions catalogue>>doc:extensions:Main.WebHome]] lists the rest. | ||

| 28 | A flavor is itself an extension, which is why it has a version of its own and why the wiki's content is [[upgraded as a flavor>>doc:documentation.xs.admin.upgrade.flavor.WebHome]] after the distribution has been upgraded. |
