Issue #3 - 01/07/2025

Greetings,

After 15+ years of working with both Joomla! and WordPress, I’ve seen the incredible potential of both platforms. While much of my journey has focused on designing and developing WordPress themes—including contributions to the WordPress.org support forums and theme reviews—my passion for Joomla! has remained steadfast. Over the years, I’ve learned the value of both CMSs and the communities behind them.

Recently, I faced a critical decision: how to best serve creators using these platforms while managing my resources effectively. Originally, I planned to run a separate website, dedicated exclusively to Joomla! tutorials and helping WordPress users transition to Joomla! if they choose to move on. However, maintaining two websites full-time—andrejutras.ca and LearningJoomla.com—would stretch my efforts too thin.

To provide the best experience and focus, I’ve decided to bring everything under one roof at andrejutras.ca. This approach allows me to:

  • Combine Expertise: Share tutorials, insights, and resources for both Joomla! and WordPress users in one place.
  • Offer Comprehensive Services: Coaching, teaching, and tutorials for WordPress’s block editor as well as Joomla! basics and advanced topics.
  • Simplify Access: Provide high-quality, accessible content for both platforms without dividing my energy across multiple sites.

As for LearningJoomla.com, there is something special coming for this, down the road. I'm taking a page out of the WordPress book and will implement it. However, for now, let's focus on the current website and get things rolling!

What’s Coming?

In the coming months, you can expect:

  • Tutorials and Resources: From beginner-friendly guides to advanced strategies for Joomla! and WordPress.
  • Custom Themes and Templates: Starting with WordPress themes (free and pro versions), followed by Joomla! templates, all available through a membership model.
  • Community Building: Insights and discussions on the future of both platforms, helping users navigate their options.

By focusing all my efforts on andrejutras.ca, I’m creating a one-stop hub for website creators who use Joomla! and WordPress. Whether you’re looking to optimize your current website, learn something new, or explore transitioning between platforms, I’ve got you covered.

If you ever have questions or topics you’d like me to cover, just reply to this email—I’d love to hear from you!

See You Next Week,

Andre
