:The Joomla! Project is organized into two large working groups: Production and Community.
+
{{:Projects}}
−
 
+
−
;[[Production Working Group]]
+
−
 
+
−
The Production Working Group manages all aspects of production of the Joomla! CMS and Framework.It is made of up several large teams.
+
−
 
+
−
:The main responsibility of the Development Team is taking care of the development of the Joomla! application framework and the Joomla! Content Management System (CMS). Besides the development of the Joomla! codebase the Development Working Group defines the Joomla! roadmap strategy, creating (architectural) designs for major and minor versions and of course taking care of bug and security fixes in maintenance versions.
+
−
 
+
−
:The development team holds two teams: the [[Development Team]] and the [[Bug Squad]]. The teams have separate responsibilities, but together they form the development force of the Joomla! project. Please check the [[:Category:Development Working Group|Development Team category page]] for a full overview of all available pages.
+
−
:The Production Working Group is also responsible for special initiatives such as student programs.
+
−
 
+
−
: The [[Documentation Working Group | Documentation Team]] is responsible for user and developer documentation, help screens and other tasks. If you are looking for a way to help the documentation effort, then please take a look in the [[cookie jar]] where we have a list of small(-ish) tasks that you can pick up when you have a bit of time and can be completed without too much effort.
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
:The [[Translations Working Group | Translation Team]] is responsible for managing Joomla! internationalisation and localisation.  Here you will find information on how you can set up translations, how this team is organised, standards to use and so on.
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
;[[Sites and Infrastructure Working Group | Community Working Group]]
+
−
:The Community Working Group is responsible for maintaining a productive, jovial forum for efficient, open communication between everyone involved in the project.
+
−
 
+
−
:Some of the teams that make up the Community Working Group are those that manage the Joomla! Forum, the Extensions Directory, the Resources Directory, the Site Showcase, the Community website, Joomla Connect, and Joomla! User Groups.

Joomla! Official Documentation

Reader profiles

Find the profile that most accurately describes your role and you will find the documentation that you need more quickly. These are the most frequent profiles...

None of the above? Then look for more user profiles.

Getting started

If you have only recently starting working with Joomla you will probably have experienced the pain of learning a new system. New terminology, new ways of doing things, perhaps even the web itself may be new to you. Then let these guides relieve some of that pain.

Important

You don't need to register here if you just want to read the documentation.

You should only register if you want to make changes to the information contained here. Also note that registration on this wiki is entirely separate from registration on our other sites, such as the forum.

Quick links for Administrators
Joomla! 1.6

Joomla! 1.6 is the current version of Joomla. The following pages will get you started with Joomla 1.6.

For more information see the Joomla 1.6 category page.

Quick links for developers
Joomla! 1.5

Joomla! 1.5 is still widely used and will continue to be supported for some time to come.

Helping with the documentation effort
Documentation Projects

You don't need to join the Documentation Working Group to help us improve the documentation. Just register on this wiki and get started. Feel free to fix any errors you find; take a look in the Cookie jar; or consider helping out in one of our mini-projects...
