Writing Modules the Fast and Fun Way

Even with almost 10,000 extensions in the Joomla Extension Directory, a search for one serving your exact needs can still come up empty. Sooner or later, you're going to want to start building your own extensions. If you've never built an extension before, join us as we write a module: the quickest way of authoring reusable code for your site. We'll start with the absolute bare minimum you need to run a module, then craft it into something more flexible.

Bio: Joseph LeBlanc began programming when he was eight years old. Since then he has become a computer programmer and an active member of the tech community in Austin, Texas. After writing a Mambo programming tutorial in 2004, Joseph went on to author Learning Joomla! 1.5 Extension Development for Packt Publishing and record Joomla! 1.7/2.5: Programming and Packaging Extensions for Lynda.com. Joseph currently writes code for Cory Webb Media while sampling tacos and bánh mì sandwiches around Austin.
