Wer hat an der Uhr gedreht? Wie die Zeit vergeht, wenn man Artikel schreiben soll - und es wird jedes Mal wieder knapp zum Stichtag hin. Wahrscheinlich geht es den Leuten, die ihre Erweiterungen dokumentieren müssen genauso. Meistens sehen wir Benutzer uns ja nur die Demo an, lesen die Kurzbeschreibung und laden dann das Teil herunter und installieren es ...

Today, the Joomla CMS is mainly implemented using PHP where JavaScript (JS) and CSS are contributing as minor supportive technologies.

Draw the examples in the text, copy the pictures and you will see that in the end you had fun.

Being a part of the community I sometimes wonder how I started 6-7 years ago with Joomla!... We didn't have Facebook or Twitter, where we could ask for support or help with extensions. These days I wonder if newbies (sorry for the terminology) know how to search in the JED. Search in the WHAT...?

Those of you who read joomla.org in English, have known for a few months now that there is a new initiative in place to create a Joomla certification program.

It's a project being worked on by people from more than a dozen countries and several continents. It is born from the fusion of so many different experiences and marks a milestone in the creation of a quality CMS certification program for Joomla.
