About Joomla: 5 Crucial Facts You Should Know About Joomla to be an Effective Joomla Web Designer

by Muhammad Jalloh

For you to become an informed Joomla web designer, there are some basic (but crucial) facts that you need to know about Joomla. This will save you a lot of trouble, disappointment and technical development problems along the way.

In this report, we will take a look at 7 of the most crucial pieces of information (and a bonus one) to help you make the best of learning how to design Joomla websites. Without much ado, here they are:

Crucial Fact #1: What is Joomla?

Joomla is a Content Management System (CMS) that is built on the PHP programming language. It is used to design and develop dynamic (interactive and changing, based on user needs and requests) websites. It uses MySQL as a database to store the site users, articles and other information needed and used by the website.

Hint: Even though, Joomla is built using the PHP programming language, you dont have to know a single line or command of PHP for you to use Joomla to design and develop interactive and sophisticated websites. You will have an added advantage over others if you already know some PHP, but dont worry, you can develop perfectly-great websites without having to write a single line of PHP code yourself. NEITHER do you need to know MySQL. You can build and launch functional Joomla websites without knowing MySQL.

Crucial Fact #2: Skills Needed to Develop Joomla Websites

There are no advanced skills needed to develop Joomla-based websites. But here are some skills that will come in handy sometimes:

HTML: A working knowledge (even if basic) of HTML is useful especially when you want to do some custom modification of the Joomla templates. But dont worry, if your HTML skills are not nearly as great. But if you need to brush up on the fundamentals, go to http://joomlasultan.com/css-html-tutorials for a list of free resources to help you.

CSS: Cascading Style Sheets is a form of HTML that is used to design the formatting (tables, color schemes, etc.) of your website. It is used heavily in designing your Joomla templates. But you dont need to be an expert in it to design and develop a nicely working Joomla website.
