Resources to start-off

The following is a list of resources for starting off with Magento

• The first is a very good start up tutorial by Alan storm.
• Second most important is Magento Class Documentations (unfortunately the Magento site documentation is not that helpful) but I find this site useful.
• In order to create (simple) modules for start, using this online script is helpful and useful.
• Or Download Module Creator to create modules from your Magento installation
• If you are confused about how to install extensions:
  1. Get to the Magento Connect site to get your extension. You will be given an extension key.
  2. Goto Magento http://<yoursiteshost>/downloader and paste your key... that should do!
