Where to start?
There are two getting started tracks:
- The Demo Portal getting started track, in which you use the demo subprojects from our SVN repository to build and deploy a portal. The goal is a portal page with a menu, a breabcrumb and a list of news documents from Hippo Repository.
- The Hello World! getting started track, in which you build and deploy your own portal and portlet projects from scratch. The goal is a portal page with a standard Pick A Number portlet and one sample Hello World portlet, that retrieves its content from Hippo Repository.
