28Dec Joe LeBlanc's Learning Joomla! 1.5 Extension Development Book

The Second Edition of Joe LeBlanc’s book “Learning Joomla! 1.5 Extension Development” is now available from PackT. Normally, I would recommend buying the book through the Joomla! Shop since the project gets an added bonus, but the title is not yet available. (When it is available, I will update this post.)

If you want to develop using Joomla!, or if you are looking to strengthen your skills, I recommend this step-by-step guide to creating Joomla! 1.5 Components, Modules, and Plugins. By following the examples and instruction in the book, you can learn to build a fully functioning set of extensions, complete with SEF URLs, the ability for visitor interaction (including comments) and backend administrative capabilities. Downloadable code examples are provided with the book.
