199 199  While the docker container contains all the necessary system utilities to run the XWiki server internally, a lot of functionality for the Wiki will be missing as it is.
200 200  The XWiki container is very lackluster even in administration features and not installing the Standard flavor will give you a very barebones and almost functionally broken experience. As such, while optional, it is very strongly encouraged to install the Standard flavor along with XWiki to activate many of its most basic features.
201 201  To do so, we will have to download a very specific XIP package from XWiki's download portal. Visit [[here>>https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Download/]] this aforementioned download portal and click the "Download" button for the Long Term Support option on that page. On the new page, click the "Download" button for the "XIP Package" section. This will allow you to download the XIP package in question to your local computer.

206 206  Once the XWiki engine has initialized its start state properly, you may visit your XWiki instance by going into the browser and accessing the wiki via your Nginx configured subdomain, rather than by port 8081 as we previously did. If you opted to also configure Nginx to inject TLS into the connection, you should now see the green lock in your web browser, next to the address bar, indicating that your connection to your server is encrypted and protected from any network sniffers. You may now proceed to both create an administrative account, as well as install the Standard flavor.

217 +It's finally time to setup the administration account! This account will have full privileges throghout the wiki and will be able to view and edit anything and everything. As such, please use a very strong password to protect it from password stuffing attacks!
218 +If in doubt, always use a password manager like Bitwarden to generate strong, long passwords for you! These are guarenteed to have high entropy and are resistant to dictionary attacks.
