Emmanuel Katto Dubai : Request for Guidance on Prerequisites for Omeka S Module Development

Hi Everyone, I’m Emmanuel Katto from Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE) I’m part of a central team at the University of Warwick working on developing Omeka S modules and themes. Our team comes mainly from a Python and R background, so we’re looking for training materials and resources to help us get up to speed with the necessary technologies.

From reviewing the Omeka S developer documentation, it seems that we need to strengthen our skills in PHP and the Zend framework. I would greatly appreciate any advice or insights from the community on the best learning paths or competencies we should focus on to be able to contribute effectively to Omeka S development.

So far, I’ve been considering improving core PHP skills through platforms like Pluralsight and also gaining familiarity with the Zend framework. But I’m keen to hear from others who may have experience in this area.

Many thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards,
Emmanuel Katto
