The Future of Joomla is CSS Grid, Not Bootstrap 4

: Written by Valentín García Valentín García; Published: 12 October 2020 12 October 2020

Joomla 4 is currently in development. It may be months before Joomla 4 is released, but we're already working on compatability for Joomlashack templates.

One of the most important changes in Joomla 4 is the upgrade from Bootstrap 2 to Bootstrap 4. However, one thing we've discovered is that Joomla 4 will not rely exclusively on Bootstrap.

Joomla 4 will also rely on CSS Grid Layout, a CSS method that is revolutionizing the frontend web design industry.

In Joomla 4, Module Styles Will Move to Layout Files

: Written by Valentín García Valentín García; Published: 30 June 2020 30 June 2020

Here at Joomlashack, we've been writing a lot about next year's Joomla 4 release. If you want to quickly catch up on Joomla 4, I recommend watching this video.

In this tutorial, I'm going to talk about a technical change in Joomla 4 that will have a big impact for designers.

In Joomla, module styles define the HTML output for modules. These styles control the output for the module title, heading and class suffixes.

Up until Joomla 3, module styles were managed through a unique file named modules.php located inside the /html folder of each template.

Starting in Joomla 4, module styles will be now managed in layout files.

In this post, I'll introduce you to the new approach for styling modules implemented in the upcoming Joomla 4.

The Joomla team is now making progress in turning that design into code.

In this post, I'll show you the current state of the Joomla 4 admin template, which is called Atum. Keep in mind that the current version is Alpha 4, which means we don't even have a Beta version available yet. A lot will change before the final release.

One of the major changes in future Joomla 4 will be the adoption of CSS Grid.

In this blog post, I'm going to help you master the key ideas behind CSS Grid.
