You have 3 main use cases for changes in standard XE:
* .java file: you need to build the JAR and replace the one you have
in WEB-IN/lib/ (there is also a few installed extensions now in XE
now, in this case you need to replace the jar in
/data/extension/repository folder)
* .vm/.js/.css: you directly modify those files in your running
instance in /template, /resource or /skin folders and just refresh the
page usually (you may also need to clear browser cache for js/css) and
when it works copy paste it in git
* wiki page: you directly modify the page in your running instance,
test it there and when you are happy with it export the page to put it
in git

Hi,
I recently made some changes in the the XWiki platform repo to solve the
following bug:
https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12869?jql=Difficulty%20%3D%20Easy%20and…
Although the changes seemed obvious, but I was not able to verify those
changes on my running XWiki instance.
As far as I know, if I make some changes to an application (for eg 'Blog
Application') on my computer, and then build it, then a '.xar' file is
generated which can be imported to my local XWiki instance and I can verify
visually whether those changes took place or not.
In my present case I made changes in
'xwiki-platform/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-flamingo/xwiki-platform-flamingo-skin/xwiki-platform-flamingo-skin-resources/src/main/resources/flamingo/editclass.vm'.
I thought a xar file of xwiki-platform-flamingo-skin will be generated if I
build xwiki-platform-flamingo, but it didn't take place.
Is there any way in which I can verify these changes on my local XWiki
instance?
Thanks :)
