The best introduction to Joomla! 3+?

Question

Joomla

while what I found is difficult to read and everything is in the fog

where is it clear and understandable?

Answer 1

There are article resources, training:
joomlaportal.ru
cmscafe.ru
wedal.ru There is Kurteev
on youtube and he also has joomla.center There is Joomla documentation for developers in Russian There is a Russian Joomla forum and there is a Joomla telegram channel

Answer 2

Joomla has a higher entry threshold than many other CMS. Yes, and it gravitates more towards a framework than just a CMS. When studying, do not try to rely on terminology from other CMS. "Plugin" in WordPress and "plugin" in Joomla are different things that solve different problems. Resources advised you, good. Telegram chat is active and quite friendly compared to many similar ones.

Answer 3

Nowhere. Just put on hosting and see what's what. In fact, the whole Joomla is a set of large components and modules for them.
