Problem/Motivation
Drupal out-of-the-box doesn't contain a fully functional demo trying to sell Drupal. Instead what is currently shipped is just the building tools for creating awesome websites. In order to convince new people trying Drupal, we want to include a demo built using the built-in tools.
See this issue for more details #2847582: Out of The Box experience initiative
Proposed resolution
Since we are building a demo which we don't expect people to build their sites on it will be marked as experimental. This will also enable the team to iterate the product after releasing it. This is the same approach as we've taken with Seven and Bartik. It is not feasible to modify any of the pre-existing installation profiles for experimental purposes since people use them in production.
Therefore we should create a new installation profile that is marked as experimental. This idea was proposed and agreed on #2809635: Create experimental installation profile.
It is important that it is clearly communicated that users are discouraged from building sites on top of that installation profile.
Remaining tasks
Solve specific issues related to the installation profile in the sandbox.
