Description

Join us for this month's Joomla User Group London (#JUGL) meetup!

For November, we have two exciting sessions:

René Kreijveld - Developing Joomla 5 Extensions with Visual Studio Code
René returns to JUGL to share his extensive expertise in modern development workflows. Discover how Visual Studio Code transforms Joomla 5 extension development with powerful debugging tools, intelligent code completion, and professional-grade development environments. René will demonstrate practical techniques for setting up VSCode specifically for Joomla 5, including essential extensions, debugging configurations, and productivity-enhancing shortcuts that will revolutionize your development workflow.

Gary Barclay and Philip Walton - Joomla 6.0, Our Favourite Bits
Hear directly from the Joomla 6.0 Release Managers themselves! Gary and Phil, who led the massive effort to bring Joomla 6 to life (released just a month ago on October 14, 2025), will share their personal highlights from this major release. With over 276 changes, automatic core updates, enhanced security via TUF, and significant architectural improvements, Joomla 6 represents a major leap forward for the platform—and nobody knows it better than the team who built it.


Schedule (UTC):
The event starts at 19:00 UTC on Tuesday, 18th November, and will run until 21:00 UTC.
