Hello,

Today, first time I started Liferay 7 in my machine so thought to share basic walk through with Liferay 7 portal, in this walk through I have covered different sections of Liferay 7, play with couple of component like Blogs, Page, Document and Media,Control Panel, Mobile preview etc , Enjoy video !!

What version I have used in this video ? It is Lifeay 7 Alpha-2 Community Version

Where to download ? Well, I got it from Liferay team in Liferay Symposium workshop but I am sure you will find all latest LR7 community version here.
