FW: Smashing Magazine's excellent list of resources for Drupal developers and designers
Posted 4 months ago in Drupal
Smashing Magazine wrote up a very detailed and lengthy list of Drupal development resources yesterday on their blog.
The Drupal community as a whole needs more face-time like this to sustain and grow a healthy influx of new developers and designers. It's definitely worth a peek and a bookmark, so check it out!

Nice collection for newbies, but it's missed some important things (for example, some important modules are not listed: views, panels ...)
I totally agree. I still think it's resources like these that are massively important for doing just that - attracting more newbies :)
Perhaps someone should writeup a collection of harder-to-find advanced resources.

Nick, I just started to go through your stuff & I thank you for your newbie-oriented style. As a screen reader user, I appreciate the ddescriptive instructions. I hate when gurus send me to have a look at their screenshots. It might be that you care about accessibility. :-)
Thanks - Pawel.
Nick,
That resource needs to happen. I've spent several days/weeks going through the tutorials, info, etc about Drupal and was able to easily pick it up. However, the challenge I'm facing so far is to get Drupal do what other CMSs do. And even the ecommerce part. Boy, I'm so ready to drop x-cart like a rock and replace it for D. I'm also migrating my and our clients sites to Drupal, but need more info about how to maximize things.
I got lullabots videos, books, other ebooks, etc, BUT sometimes you find better things in blogs like yours or other online communities.
I really hope someone takes the time to create that resource for the ones that are getting used the beauty of Drupal.
Cheers,
Augusto
Augusto,
Drupal.org is currently undergoing a massive overhaul (complete redesign, really), so we may get a much more structured display of available tutorials. Here's to hoping that happens.
