Course Description

It has never been better time to learn Drupal 8 module development.

Thats because Drupal 8 is already the better technologically and thefaster way to build Drupal applications(compared to Drupal 7).

Drupal 8 is built on top of Symfony so the good news are that as you learn how to create controller for example in Drupal 8 - the way you would do it in Symfony is quite the same and vice versa. Thats great because that actually means that the skills are transferable and that we are not going to be bogged down into endless drupalisms (Drupal-specific terms).

In this course we are going to learn the most popular sections of the Drupal 8 module development:

we are going to declare our own custom modulewe are going to learn what is a controller and we are going to build our own controller classwe are going to learn how to implement new routes in the .
routing.
yml filewe are going to learn how to render controller content in twig templatehow to include libraries (assets) when certain templates are being renderedhow to create custom blockshave a good understanding of what Renderable arrays arewhat in general are Serviceshow to declare a servicehow to inject a service into our own servicehow to inject a service to a containerhow to create custom forms and act on submissionhow to validate formshow to alter any formhow to create an AJAXformhow to save our custom configuration to our won custom form admin pagehow to render our custom configurationhow to declare permissions and how to make them work to restrict stuff ...
We are going to implement as much examples as possible and always Iattached for you the final files so that you could easily compare with the final result and not waste time on tracing a tiny-tiny bug.
Itried to make it as clear as possible and to share as much as possible examples that I face in my everyday work process as PHPDrupal developer. The skills that are covered in this course are surely stuff that you would need if your are building complex Drupal 8 applications and are "Must have" as a knowledge for every Drupal developer...
Who this course is for:
Drupal developers that want to learn codingPHP developers that want to learn Drupal 8 codingSymfony developers that want to learn how the code could be implemented in Drupalpeople that like Drupal and programmingDrupal themers and site builders who want to learn programmingjust about anyone who is willing to learn Drupal module development

The course is good for beginners who are jumping in to module development by following the tutorial examples.

The teacher clearly knows what he is talking about. But this is NOT a course for beginners. If you don't have any experience with Symfony, steer away from this course and first learn Symfony.
The lessons consist of watching the teacher build a module, but without any real explanations about why he does what he does. He assumes A LOT of prior knowledge that people who don't know Symfony won't have. I know PHP but I have no clue why what he is doing works. So I started a Symfony course and now things are become a bit more clear.
There is no explanation about Drupal's render engine, which parameter does what etc... The course leaves a lot to be researched by the student.
Questions from students don't get answered any more. I feel like this course is abandonned.

A practical course demonstrating custom module development in Drupal.

By Edilson Barreto Santos on 10/6/2020

It's great but I think He should have gone deeper in more specific topics and doesn't have any lessons about database and table creations...

By NEEL Erwan on 9/10/2020

Very good lesson ! Thank you master ;)

By Darnell Thacker on 9/7/2020

It will help to include use cases...

I was struggling to find decent documentation on how to edit and manipulate files in the Drupal module system. But this quick course provides a good overview of the Drupal file system and how custom modules are made. With this information you can then start to understand how other modules are made and can manipulate those as you see fit. Or just create your own from scratch!

I like it very much and useful for me

By Christophe Baptiste on 8/13/2020

Cours pratique, assez complet sur les diffrents aspects d'un module. Seul petit bmol, il manque un peu d'explication thorique sur certains composants et la relation de ces composants avec le systme et les autres composants.

By Pradeep Kumar V L on 8/4/2020

A very good course to under the way to write custom code in D8. A very good starting kit for developers who are new to D8.

So It look like this course cover enough topics to help understanding fundamental concept of Drupal module development. The presenter speaks clearly and instruction is fluent, so I feel comfortable to follow the course.
