New Class: How to Develop Joomla Components, Part 2

For quite some time, Joomla development was the most requested topic by OSTraining members.

I’m delighted to release another major class in our Joomla development series. We’ve worked with Cory Webb, a Joomla developer since 2005, to produce a series of classes on building Joomla extensions.

This new class is called “How to Develop Joomla Components. Part 2: the Frontend“, and follows on from “How to Develop Joomla Components, Part 1. The Administrator“.

In these videos, you’ll finish building the todo list component that was started in Part 1.

Cory shows you how Joomla uses the MVC pattern for component development. You’ll learn how to build Models, Views and Controllers in the recommended Joomla way. You’ll also see how to create router files and language files, plus how to package your work for distribution.

Today’s new class completes a set of four classes on all the major types of Joomla extension:
