At present there are no plans for a book on module and component development, but we are keen to get input from our readers on your requirements for new eBooks.

At present we are working on eBooks about Building Joomla! Templates with Artisteer, The Joomla! Cookbook and Joomla! Super Extensions.  These will all be intermediate to advanced level books, intended as a follow on from the Beginners eBook. 

Please post any suggestions about additional Books for us to produce in the forum.

The ebook represents about 6 months solid work, which would not have been possible if it was not funded as a commercial project.  The purpose of the book is to help developers who are short of time to get up to speed quickly with Joomla!  Note that the O'Reilly books are all sold commercially although they cover largely Open Source software.

We will provide as much free advice and templates as possible on the site.  Checkout the downloads and the our Blog, and sign up for our free monthly newsletter.
