Developer Network™ There is always a great deal of Joomla! development activity underway and communicating with other developers in the community is essential. This site is a resource for anyone looking to build or maintain software based on the Joomla! platform.
Where to Start
After a longer time frame than expected, we are nearly back on track with the Beta4 release. Some recent events took more time. One of these was the removal of the router feature, you can get more information here.
In a few weeks, Joomla! 3.7 will be released. We have also finalised our roadmap for the remainder of the 3.x series and have marked Joomla! 3.9 as the final release of the series.
Some weeks ago we published the information that we are looking into the router code. Since then we have checked with a team of developers the code for the new router. The initial reason was an issue about it not responding to invalid URLs with the 404. Here we would like to share the reasons why we have came to the conclusion to remove the new router from the 3.7 release.
