Interactive Joomla Site Development with HTML5 – Mobile Ready Site

Joomla is an exceptionally rich tool that can create amazing interactive websites. It is nothing but a comprehensive Content Management System, which can be merged into web portals, no matter what their scope and size is. Joomla provides several components and functions that are useful for web development. Businesses can leverage this platform to have a competitive advantage in the market. This content management system has gained immense popularity among developers because of the easy usage and quick web development it provides.

It doesn’t require you to be tech savvy to own a Joomla website and understand the complexities. It requires absolutely minimum efforts to manage a Joomla based website. Joomla is experiencing the same evolution as technology and market demands. As technology and demands of the market have evolved, so has Joomla. People are now focusing on building highly interactive sites. Well, and not just that, today, people want to build responsive sites that can run on all the devices. It is this demand that has led to the spurt of Joomla’s latest version allowing developers to optimally use HTML5 for creating responsive sites. This helps to have sites that run well on mobile devices and are highly interactive, spontaneous, responsive and engaging.

Joomla 3.0

This calls us to take a quick look at the latest version of Joomla – Joomla 3.0. We also need to understand ‘why developers believe this to be the next big thing in the world of interactive and responsive websites?’

Installation

The best thing about Joomla 3.0 is that the developer can avail a complete support for HTML5. Leaving aside all other things, it is time to install the latest version and experience the change yourself. Visit www.joomla.org/download.html to download Joomla 3.0. However, this version is made for those developers who are experienced, not for beginners.

Mobile Ready Website

Well, Joomla 3.0 is a CMS that makes your website looks as great on a mobile device as it looks on a desktop. It allows you to integrate content that is mobile savvy on your website along with offering you mobile friendly tools to administer your content. The changing consumption patterns of users are making it essential for website owners to create websites that are “mobile” – I mean responsive websites. Now, if you have to create a website that is responsive, Joomla 3.0 is dominant because this allows the developer to use responsive site template, administration User Interface and core output. You might be wondering this can be possible. Well, it is because of the BootStrap framework.

User Friendly

The Bootstrap Responsive Framework that we talked about in the previous bullet plays an important role in determining the user-friendliness of the website. The Joomla admin is on for a strong fix, and the User Experience is on a move to be improved. All these changes are only and only to make the website “responsive”, so that users can access a website from any device they want to; be it a desktop, laptop, tablet or SmartPhone. Joomla 3.0 also facilitates a smooth work-flow on any device you use.

Feature Rich Theme – HTML5

You need to select a HTML5 theme based on the nature of your business. There are two themes you can choose from:

i) Basic HTML5 coded

To opt for the Beez5 default template, you will have to choose two code outputs – XHTML or HTML5. This helps in improving the website presentation using a some great HTML5 components. However, one drawback is that it offers only a limited HTML5 code support based on the reliability. Therefore, if you need something exceptional from this template, you are free to choose from the many HTML5 Joomla templates using the Beez5’s override function.

ii) SEO Friendly

You can choose a user and SEO friendly theme to ensure that your website not only runs effectively on all the browsers, but is also SEO friendly.

Experienced HTML 5 designer & Joomla Developer

Joomla 3.0 must be handled by an experienced designer, just as I mentioned earlier. Hire professionally trained HTML5 designers, and Joomla developers to develop a custom HTML5 feature for your website. Hiring an inexperienced professional is risking your website development. Joomla 3.0 with HTML5 is a framework that provides developers with some amazing features, and extensions as well as effects that can be incorporated in the website design to enhance the site. A simple example is that you can easily add videos and products on your website using this framework. Moreover, you can also add interactive slides, however, make sure you hire an experienced designer and developer to ensure smooth implementation.
