--== Getting Started with XWiki ==
++== 📎 Attachments and Images ==
--The `{{example}}` macro in XWiki is an underrated powerhouse—great for *teaching*, *showcasing macros*, *hiding complex markup*, and *letting users play with source-output pairs*. Here are some **highly effective and interesting uses**:
--
-----
--
--## 🧪 1. **Macro Showcase: Source-to-Output Toggle**
--
--Show how a macro works without cluttering the page with raw syntax.
--
--```xwiki
--== Gallery Macro ==
--{{example}}
--{{gallery}}
--[[image:photo1.jpg]]
--[[image:photo2.jpg]]
--{{/gallery}}
--{{/example}}
--```
--
--**Why it's good:** New users see both source and result without confusion.
--
-----
--
--## 📝 2. **Editable Template Snippets**
--
--Use `{{example}}` to store reusable content that users can copy, paste, and modify.
--
--```xwiki
--== Boilerplate Box ==
--{{example}}
--{{box cssClass="highlight"}}
--Insert your highlighted content here.
--{{/box}}
--{{/example}}
--```
--
-----
--
--## 🎓 3. **Educational Tutorials (e.g., Velocity or Groovy)**
--
--Teach scripting with real, live code examples.
--
--```xwiki
--== Velocity Greeting ==
--{{example}}
--{{velocity}}
--#set($name = "Visitor")
--Hello, $name!
--{{/velocity}}
--{{/example}}
--```
--
-----
--
--## 🎯 4. **Comparing Macro Parameters**
--
--Demonstrate how different macro parameters change output—side-by-side.
--
--```xwiki
--== Info vs Warning ==
--{{example}}
--{{info}}This is an info box.{{/info}}
--
--{{warning}}This is a warning box.{{/warning}}
--{{/example}}
--```
--
-----
--
--## 🧩 5. **Interactive Data Blocks (TOC, Footnotes, etc.)**
--
--Visually show what happens when you use certain macros together.
--
--```xwiki
--== Footnote Demo ==
--{{example}}
--This claim needs a source{{footnote}}Here it is.{{/footnote}}.
--{{putFootnotes/}}
--{{/example}}
--```
--
-----
--
--## 🧪 6. **Live Scripting Playgrounds**
--
--Embed small self-contained scripting playgrounds where users can view or modify dynamic output.
--
--```xwiki
--== Groovy Lookup ==
--{{example}}
--{{groovy}}
--def now = new Date()
--println("Current time: " + now)
--{{/groovy}}
--{{/example}}
--```
--
-----
--
--## 📦 7. **Component/API Call Demos**
--
--Useful for devs exploring the API.
--
--```xwiki
--== Access Current User ==
--{{example}}
--{{velocity}}
--Current user: **$xcontext.user**
--{{/velocity}}
--{{/example}}
--```
--
-----
--
--## 📘 8. **Expandable Wiki Templates with Output**
--
--Pair `{{example}}` with `{{expandable}}` for full disclosure without visual clutter.
--
--```xwiki
--== Expandable Summary ==
--{{example}}
--{{expandable summary="🧠 Study Summary"}}
--Key findings go here.
--{{/expandable}}
--{{/example}}
--```
--
-----
--
--## 🔧 9. **Syntax Training: Bad vs Good**
--
--Side-by-side "Do this, not that" with toggles.
--
--```xwiki
--== List Formatting ==
--{{example}}
--*Bad formatting*
--* use - inconsistently
--** Good formatting:
--  * Consistent bullet style
--  * Indented items properly
--{{/example}}
--```
--
-----
--
--## 💡 Bonus Tip: Combine `{{example}}` + `{{code}}` for Highlighted Snippets
--
--```xwiki
--== Python Code ==
--{{example}}
--{{code language="python"}}
--def greet():
--    print("Hello World")
--{{/code}}
--{{/example}}
--```

  * Ensure your content is well-researched, you don't need to include references in the format of footnotes for your material, but you should try to include studies or links to give credibility to your claims. For instance, just claiming that [[IQ is genetic>>doc:Main Categories.Science & Research.Race & IQ.WebHome]] is genetic wouldn't be valid unless you provide a study backing up that assertion, or more likely link to a page within this site that explains why IQ is not something that is purely determined by environmental factors. If such a page doesn't exist, create it, and start providing studies that show this.
  * Use clear, concise language and avoid using slurs, slang, or troll like language. This isn't supposed to be encyclopedia dramatica, I'd like things to remain relatively mature and well thought out.

++**Switching Between Syntaxes**
++XWiki supports multiple syntaxes, including XWiki 2.1, MediaWiki, and others. While it’s possible to switch a page’s syntax, exercise caution, as certain syntaxes may not fully support WYSIWYG editing. For instance, changing a page to MediaWiki syntax might limit the availability of the WYSIWYG editor. citeturn0search6
