Who Are We?

The Dallas / Fort Worth User Group is a North Texas Joomla! mentoring user group committed to helping each other learn how to leverage Joomla! to make sophisticated web-sites for little investment.  Joomla!^® is one of the more popular open source content management systems and is available for free. Using this system can help you build and maintain your website more quickly and easily with more features than you may have thought possible.

We've been meeting since 2007 throughout the DFW metroplex.  Our primary monthly meeting is in Plano (Far North Dallas), but we also have smaller discussion groups meeting in other area locations and sometimes offer virtual sessions.  Our primary meetings tend to be workshop sessions or presentations addressing a few aspects of the system or Joomla extensions, offering everyone the opportunity to learn from each other how to build, improve, and maintain full-featured sites. For this reason, we try to meet in Dallas / Fort Worth locations that have WiFi so that members who own laptops can bring them for a more interactive session. Sometimes we focus on a particular aspect, extension, application or topic; while, at other times, we focus on specific issues or questions that our members bring to the meeting.

To RSVP for meetings and receive meeting reminders, sign up for the Meetup.com group.  ALL ARE WELCOME, whether you are an experienced developer or someone wanting to set up your first website. We're here to learn together and share.
