Hi everyone. I'm new to Mezzanine / Django. My background is in design and I don't have any programming experience. I know HTML, CSS and a little jQuery and I've used snippets of PHP before. My job wants me to start making themes for Mezzanine. I've been working at it for a few days, reading and following tutorials.
I'll try to refrain from posting stupid, generic, desperate, or obvious questions on here but I'll admit it, I'm pretty lost. So far I've installed Python, Django and Mezzanine on Windows 7. I've figured out how to create a Mezzanine project, created a 'theme' app inside it, copied over core templates, downloaded and inspected the free themes, edited HTML and CSS of those themes, played around with the default theme and looked at the code in the template files. I've read over the Django documentation - specifically 'Django template language', 'Built-in tag reference' and 'The Django templating system'. I've read over the links from the Mezzanine default homepage. In learning how to do all this, confusion is hitting from all angles. I want to know how this stuff is working so I can not only edit and create css styles but add different page types and learn how to write template code and change the default url names. What do you suggest focusing on first? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Mezzanine Users" group.
