2011 Recap: Joomla, Magento, Drupal Review at JoomlArt

I. JA Joomla! Club

A hard but exciting year with Joomla 1.5 - 1.6 - 1.7

browsers overview
2011 was very hard year for us, as well as for other Joomla templates/extensions providers. The new Joomla release cycle announced early last year and with that we had to support 3 main versions and dozens of sub-versions for our templates and extensions. Right after Joomla 1.6 release we updated T3 framework and more than 30 Joomla 1.6 templates within 4 weeks. Joomla 1.7 came out by midyear and the we went for the whole process again: converting, testing, fixing, updating all templates from J 1.6 to J 1.7. And in between we updated 34 Joomla extensions (check this infographic for facts & figures). Very soon Joomla 2.5 will be released, more details on the community page. We will get busy again with the same process and have T3 Framework updated in time, followed by J 1.7 to J 2.5 updates.

Quick facts and stats in brief:

12 X 2 = 24 Joomla! Templates Released

We released total of 671 updates for 148 templates/ extensions (J 1.5 / 1.6 /1.7 versions)

II. JA Drupal Theme Club

Drupal 7 - JDTC becomes ThemeBrain & Nucleus
The year started ambitious with Drupal re-construction plans. We failed the first run and have been pulled back for months. We reset our minds and re-build a totally new Drupal 7 base theme NUCLEUS and it seems we are on the right track. Our Drupal theme community moved to themebrain.com in October 2011. Have a look and get our monthly free Drupal theme release. Thanks to our Drupal community and our new internal Drupal team for a good but difficult Drupal year 2011.
2011 Recap: Joomla, Magento, Drupal Review at JoomlArt

6 New Drupal Themes Released

III. JA Magento Theme Club

JMTC club completed its second successful year and we gave away 100’s of complimentary renewals to our members. Dec 2011 saw special promotion for Magento and the prices / duration of the memberships were updated and based on the response we are thinking to keep it that way. The new pricing / membership duration can be seen on the signup page.

On an average each of Magento theme was taken up for update process every 3th month. Since, we support only the latest version of magento, the club assets were easy to maintain and upgrade. Currently all are updated for Magento 1.6.1.0

IV. Behind the Scenes

JA Team

We almost doubled our team size and found great dedicated moderators all over the world. Without their years of experience in the forums and with JoomlArt products, our customer service wouldn’t be at that level as it is today. We still have challenges upfront but we are ready for the next steps in 2012. Thanks to all moderators, our internal technical support team and new team members. Welcome aboard!

Agile Development Methodology

Along with our extensions, templates and themes we have started this year to apply agile development principles in the entire company. Agile software development is new to us and we have to learn a lot more about lean, agile and self-managing teams, with the goal to bring products early to our customers, get faster feedback and keep you happy. Thanks to Scrum and our patient team members for learning and improving sprint by sprint.

House Renovation:

In 2010 we introduced the “Play before you pay” feature and users really love it. It proves for us the importance of being able to try before purchase.

In 2011 we put the live demo top bar accessible 100% on the entire site, to make sure our readers can always experience our products well before making any decision.

V. Responsive Web Design

Dim lights Embed Embed this video on your site

There are 2 things we strongly believe RWD will be trending in not just Joomla but also in web development in general:

  1. The rise of HTML5, CSS3, booming JavaScript libraries improves user experience at incredible speed.
  2. Mobile devices has changed the way we interact with the “browser”. You can see the figure 1 below, a real statistic of mobile visitors to joomlart site in 2011.

First responsive Joomla template At the end of the 2011, our lab team put their heads together and has developed JA Elastica template (view Demo | read documentation), the first responsive web design template we have ever made. Improvements and features will come step by step. To thank our customers and the Open-Source community for the year 2011, we decided to offer JA Elastica for free.

JA Elastica will be available for download next week. Check back our blog later for the download information.
