Getting started
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* To get you up and running quickly, we've provided a demonstration site with all the configuration in place, at `github.com/torchbox/wagtaildemo <https://github.com/torchbox/wagtaildemo/>`_; see the `README <https://github.com/torchbox/wagtaildemo/blob/master/README.md>`_ for installation instructions.
* See the `Getting Started <http://wagtail.readthedocs.org/en/latest/gettingstarted.html#getting-started>`_ docs for installation (with the demo app) on a fresh Debian/Ubuntu box with production-ready dependencies, on OS X and on a Vagrant box.
* `Serafeim Papastefanos <https://github.com/spapas>`_ has written a `tutorial <http://spapas.github.io/2014/02/13/wagtail-tutorial/>`_ with all the steps to build a simple Wagtail site from scratch.
