I am very impressed with this series. It is broken down into small chunks that can be easily understood. Further there is a nice feel of progression through each video that keeps you going.
Thank you!
Great course. Very well laid out.
very best
detail information and good example
so far the training is very good but my biggest challenge with orchard theme development is in including menus. I badly need help since am stuck in a certain project due to lack of knowledge on how to override menus in orchard
Excellent tutorial, I have two weeks to get the basics and build a themed site. Without this I would have been lost on the vocabulary of OrchardCMS alone.
Need to be updated to bootstrap 4.
to short, you could make one video
I watched this :)

It's for an older version of Orchard CMS and I don't think this is done like this anymore.
