Yes, I agree that we need to create a new page that explains how to build an 
extension to XWiki. Right now we have 
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Building but it’s dedicated to 
build XWiki from sources. 

Then we have several tutorials related to building various types of XWiki 
extensions such as:
* Components: 
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/WritingComponents
* Macro: http://rendering.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ExtendingMacro
* etc.

Then we also have explanations on how to contribute a new extension in 
xwiki-contrib: 
* http://contrib.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome.

So I think all those pages would benefit from having a link to an external doc 
page named something like “Building your Extension”.

WDYT?

If you think this is useful I’ll work on such a page. Let me know.

Regarding requirements, there’s a place ATM for running XWiki:
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation#HPrerequisites

Thanks
-Vincent
