Warning

The usual Cocoon Developer profile
As a Cocoon developer (someone who develops components for Cocoon), you need of course everything you have to know as a Cocoon user. In addition you should have a basic understanding of the following technologies. Again, this knowledge is not specific to Cocoon; it can be used for building web applications with different frameworks as well.
- The Java Language and Application Frameworks
- Java Servlets
- Avalon Component Framework
Overview
Here will soon appear an overview of the developer perspective.
If you are interested in developing real-world web-applications requiring form handling, authentication or even developing your own portal, have a look at the web application documentation.
The actual developer documentation is available from the side-panel.
