Sometime last year, I searched for & revisited that post. I had to admit that I had received the best piece of advice that has guided my steady progress in the software development industry. There is more to becoming a better programmer/developer than just "reading a good book", but make no mistake about it, that's the best place to start.
This piece of advice definitely applies to Drupal. Before I delve into what Drupal is & what Drupal isn't (in this post and others to follow), let me reiterate that you are going to need to read a good Drupal book. And there are many. But that may not be enough if you intend to make a little money, a career or a fortune from building Drupal-based web applications. You'll need to combine your book-reading with a number of other learning skills & opportunities to get the best value from your time, effort & potential.
I'll try my possible best to guide you such that what has taken me close to 2 years to wrap my head around, should take you about 2 months or less. In addition, I'll be blogging from the Nigerian point-of-view, the view that takes into consideration PHCN (Nigeria's state-owned epileptic power company), "narrowband" Internet widely available/affordable all around the country, and much more "Nigerian" factors.
Looking forward to hearing from Drupal enthusiats, newbie & experts. If you have any specific requests you'd like me to cover in upcoming posts please feel free to post a comment here or send me an email via codeweavernaija@gmail.com.
