TechFry,

I am working on your Joomla 4x Component com_planets Tutorial found here: https://www.techfry.com/resources/how-to-create-joomla-component

... and have a few questions...

a) Can I somehow get a copy of the entire Tutorial's com_planet code?

b) Regardless of the answer to a) ...

For example Manifest.xml Topic 5

[CODE]

<files folder="site"> <folder>forms</folder> <folder>src</folder> <folder>tmpl</folder> <filename>example.php</filename></files>

[/CODE]

In Sections 1-4 I was never guided to create "forms" folder or "example.php".

Is this a fully functional Joomla 4x Component Development Tutorial?

Best Regards,

Your GitHub doesn't show the code or any other things except for a recent March, 2023 HTML basic demo boiler plates which could be very useful.

Thank you!

Thank you for feedback and suggestion.

Yes, it is fully functional tutorial.

Some files are updated repeatedly while developing the component and some are common for modules and plugins. The tutorial avoids to repeat the code.

The forms folder will be added later on while developing frontend part. The example.php is just to indicate how to include filenames in the folder.

For the code, you can refer to the core components. We follow Joomla MVC structure.
