Hi everyone,
I’d like to learn how to develop for SuiteCRM 8, including:
building it from source
modifying and customizing the core
modifying and customizing the front-end
creating extensions and add-ons
…
I’ve reviewed the developer documentation on docs.suitecrm.com , but it feels quite dense for a beginner like me.
Do you know if there are any courses, training materials, or someone who offers this kind of training?
Thanks in advance!

Hi @rsp , thank you for your reply. I’ve found some really interesting YouTube channels that explain how to use SuiteCRM, but I haven’t been able to find any channels that show how to build or develop extensions, customize the core, and so on. Are there actually any channels that cover this?
Thanks again in advance!

Unfortunately, I do not see any videos on that. It mostly in docs and on this forum about it.
Also, you can check out developer insights blogs on SuiteCRM page.

Thank you very much for your response @rsp ! I will take a look!
Hello,
it’s not a lot of resources out there.
You could start with the MasterClass 3:
Watch & Learn how to configure, customise and develop on the latest versions of SuiteCRM 7.x and SuiteCRM 8
Estimated reading time: 6 minutes
There are some older videos around Suite 7 / back-end functionality:
https://www.youtube.com/@suiteCRMtutorials/videos
And if you’re looking into logic hooks / PHP / back-end processes, anything that you can find about SugarCRM until 6.5 would mostly still work.
Other than that / for Suite 8 and front-end, it’s mostly the docs and the code itself.
