magento – Paul Hayes https://paul-hayes.org Wed, 25 May 2016 20:16:11 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.4 Learning Magento 2 https://paul-hayes.org/2016/05/25/learning-magento-2/ Wed, 25 May 2016 20:16:11 +0000 http://www.paul-hayes.org/?p=9 magento-logoI’ve done Magento 1 development for some years and was really eager when I heard that Magento 2 would be released. I preordered a few Magento 2 developer books at the end of 2015. I tried to go through a few and realized that some had major issues, (i.e. Vagrant configurations not working, or incomplete modules in the book.) so I decided to bite the bullet and purchase the Fundamentals of Magento 2 Development (On-Demand) online training course from Magento U. The next few articles will chronicle my learning experience.

The course costs $689, compared to the $3000+ for an in person experience at one of the centers in LA, Austin, NY or London.

There are 6 units that take about 6 – 8 hours each to complete.

So far my only complaint is that it is taking time for me to be able to access the student guide and exercise solutions. I’m able to access the video right away.

Note: I did try the free course for Unit 1, which doesn’t have the student guide and exercise solutions.

I’ll post more when I go through the each section.
