The basics of customizing Volto without knowing a lot of React or JavaScript. Includes tasks and tips that are beneficial for day-to-day Volto development.


This training is for JavaScript beginners or Plone developers transitioning to Volto, the default frontend in Plone 6. It provides a cheat sheet on essential topics like component shadowing, block variations, extensions, and data adapters, along with best practices for efficient Volto development.

I identify as a Software developer with a strong passion for front-end development. As an active member of the Plone community, I'm deeply involved with the Plone Foundation and contribute to the Volto team. In my spare time, I enjoy sports, exploring new gadgets, and watching authentic science fiction web series.
