 Chapter 11: Your Own Program Extension 

Let's say that you want to solve a problem for which there is still no finished Joomla! component. Maybe you are a used car dealer and you need a list of your used cars that you can maintain with Joomla! Administration, or a list of your branches. Simply extend the functional range with new components, modules, and Mambots. What looks very complicated at first sight is definitely feasible with beginner-level knowledge of PHP.
