Prestashop Module Development

I've been working with Magento for several years and now I decided to take a look over PrestaShop. After having tips here and there, via internet tutorials, I bought this book. I really recommend it as I could learn a lot. Fabien Serny explains everything in a easy way, doesn't waste our time and cover almost every topic you need to know on PrestaShop modules development.PS: just to make it clear, if you are looking for installation and themes development, this is not the right book for you.

Excellent book !

Prestashop documentation is an area that needs improvement and this book is a much needed help.It follows a very practical approach and guides to the development of some useful custom modules with source code commentary and some insights to the general Prestashop architecture, the book is well written and concise.It helped me to get a better confidence with the platform and gave a boost to the development of a custom module I'm working to.Here are the chapters:Table of ContentsPreface1. Creating a New Module2. Hooks3. Using Context and its Methods4. Building Module Updates5. Front Controllers, Object Models, and Overrides6. Admin Controllers and Hooks7. The Carrier Module8. The Payment Module9. Multistore10. Security and PerformanceAppendix: Native HooksIndex

Many people have tried and document the making of a module for PrestaShop, but it's not an easy task to take on. Fabien Serny chose an interesting angle and takes you step-by-step through the development of a PrestaShop module, starting with the very basic so it's accessible to beginners too.
