How is the Typo3 extension Development And Repository?
PHP is the basis of every TYPO3 extension. As a result, being familiar with the script language is one of the most important requirements for setting up such TYPO3 extensions. However, the CMS offers two valuable and useful tools to make the development process a lot easier. The template engine Fluid helps to generate the extension in the user interface. The MVC framework acts as a template for the software architecture to keep the data from the processing and the introduction separate. In this way, the source code is made clearer and the removal of bugs becomes easier.
Enter the world of TYPO3 extension development themselves in order to program their own extension should familiarize themselves with Extension Builder. All necessary files are generated automatically, which saves a lot of time and work.
TYPO3 Extension Repository
For developers who have programmed a TYPO3 extension and wish to share it with the whole community, then the TYPO3 Extension Repository is the right platform for this. This central directory, which can be accessed via the official homepage of the CMS, offers the prospect of uploading one’s own plugins, templates, and so on to make them available for the entire TYPO3 user community. With the upload process, the developer also assigns (among other things) the aforementioned extension key, that can be found through the Extension Manager and installed.
The TYPO3 Extension Repository offers more than 1800 different extensions, which makes it one of the most important portals for TYPO3 end users. One of the directory’s particularly useful features is the combined search function, which among other things, allows you to filter results based on development status, category, and TYPO3 compatibility.
