Get TYPO3 and FED up and running in five minutes or less.
The quickest way to get a new, blank TYPO3 and FED web site up and running: the new dummy package. Simply download, import database and use the install tool or edit localconf.php to configure access to the database.
The dummy package contains the most basic setup possible along with a few content elements and a backend layout to illustrate how to use those features.
You can always find the link to the most current version of the dummy package from the front page. The current version as of writing this is <link fileadmin releases fed-dummy-4.6.4.tar.gz download file>FED/TYPO3 Dummy Package version 4.6.4.
Happy templating!
