I will teach you everything there is to know to get started successfully with Pimcore. If you are looking into a WordPress Alternative or Joomla! Alternative then you reached the right place!

Directly from the Pimcore Website: "Pimcore is the leading open source platform for managing digital experiences used more than 80.000 times at leading enterprises around the globe. It is the consolidated platform for content, community and commerce across all customer touchpoints and integrates CMS, PIM, DAM and Commerce functionalities in one open source suite."

In this course I show you how to get started with Pimcore successfully - from the perfect Dev-Environment to pushing your created website to production environments. This includes:

1. Start using tools like Git and Vagrant from the beginning on
2. We'll cover the Pimcore basics: What it is, where to find it, what to expect as developer
3. How to break down the Theme-Workflow
4. What are Documents/Assets/Objects and how to organize them
5. Custom Routes and how to deal with them
6. Deal with Object-Listings and how to create your Objects programatically
7. Implement Layouts and dynamic Footer/Header/Navigation
8. Areas, Bricks and Drag&Drop Elements
9. Deployment of the finished website to a production environment

This course starts with an overview of all the tools I need as a developer in order to work with Pimcore (or any other Web-Project). Tools like Git become mandatory already, but become far more powerful when combined with Vagrant and the right configuration. Then they are suitable for freelancers and small teams.

Then we directly head over to Pimcore. Before we start implementing, I will show you exactly where you can find all the information you need as a developer. We will setup Apache and install Pimcore.

After the installation I will quickly guide you around in the admin interface and the directory structure. It is important to know where you can find the right files and menu options you need as a developer. We talk about Documents, Assets and we create our first Object. I will also show you a way to organize everything.

Next we breakdown the theme-workflow. We start this by choosing a theme we want to implement. In Pimcore you always start with a blank, white page and you have the freedom as a Frontend Developer to choose any theme you want. We break down the theme and define our element we are going to implement in a dynamic way. 

Then we spend a moment talking about layouts in Pimcore and how to use them correctly. We remove all of our redundant elements and stick with a great layout for all of our pages. We also talk about View Helpers, such as the Title helper, headScript and headStyle.

After covering what Layouts are, we are heading over to advanced topics, such as Area-Bricks. These elements are among the best part of pimcore and really allow full customization of your website directly from the admin panel. With this course you will know everything you need to successfully implement your own area-bricks, including custom actions.

At the end I will show you all the tricks and details necessary to push your Pimcore environment to production. From the right options for the repository to the database to the configuration. 

This course covers everything you need to know to succeed as a Pimcore-Developer. It is perfect for Freelancers and Agencies and Developers bringing your skill-set to the next level.
