Chapter 4: Customizing Joomla!

Customizing means adaptating a standard program to the needs of the user. In our case, you
are the user and the standard program is Joomla!, or more exactly the front end of your Joomla! installation.

In the Joomla! administration (referred to in Chapter 3), you can customize your site, make changes, and fill it with content.
