CQ 5.3 Developer Training
Audience
This 4 day course is designed for developers who wish to learn more about application development with the CQ5 WCM Platform.
Description
CQ5 Developer Training teaches developers the fundamentals of building a custom CQ5 system based on Templates/Components. This includes practice with CQ5 development techniques such as developing Templates and Authoring Environments, dynamic image rendering, navigation, and modularization, using both CRXDE Lite and CRXDE. In-depth lecture presentations and discussions introduce concepts essential to CQ5 while comprehensive hands-on exercises, using Day’s CRXDE Development Environment, reinforce concepts learned during lecture presentations.
