Mastering Odoo 9 Development - Technical Fundamentals

Everything you need to get started developing Odoo applications. No previous Python experience required.

Mastering Odoo 9 Development - Technical Fundamentals is a comprehensive Odoo Technical Training course from Odoo Class that is designed to take you from the beginning of installing Odoo all the way up to developing Odoo Applications. At the end of this course you will understand how the Odoo Framework fits together and have a strong foundation for building real Odoo applications.

As the API has not changed fundamentally since Odoo 8... this course can be utilized in versions Odoo 8 to Odoo 11 with relatively small changes. If you are following along with the course you may wish to use Odoo 9 to make things just a bit easier. However, both Odoo 10 and Odoo 11 development are very similar to Odoo 9 and you should be able to make the transition without too much difficulty.

What makes this Odoo course special?

1. We make it easy for those that are new to programming

While it certainly will be a little easier for someone who already knows some Python, this course does not require you to have any previous knowledge of Python.

Even if you have virtually no experience in computer programming we walk you through learning the Odoo framework in such a way that even a relative beginner can understand. In fact we show you several ways you can customize Odoo without even writing a single line of Python code!

If you are new to Python, we teach you how to add fields to any Odoo model, customize Odoo views, and creating you own menus and actions. Already know Python? That will make it all the easier. Just because we assume you don't know Python doesn't mean the course moves slowly. Within the 30 minutes of finishing your Odoo install you will be on your way to customizing Odoo!

2. The course helps you get Odoo 9 installed and developing RIGHT NOW!

Even if you have never used Ubuntu before, we show you the basics on how to get around Ubuntu and enter the required commands to setup an Odoo server right on your Windows machine. You learn how to setup your Ubuntu server with Odoo. Naturally if you have never setup Ubuntu, you may need to watch the video more than once, Google a few commands, or ask a few questions in our help forum. If you wish to run a production Odoo server you will need to supplement your skills. Still, if you don't know Ubuntu... this video will help you get started and you can follow along step-by-step with this course.

3. This Video is Designed to Help you Understand the Odoo framework

Instead of just showing you code examples we begin by going through the Odoo Framework and explaining how models, views and actions work together to make Odoo applications. You learn to customize Odoo without writing code making it easy to both understand the framework and prepare you for building powerful Odoo Applications.

We cover major development topics you will need for real Odoo customization and development.

  • Learn the power of the Odoo Framework
  • See how to customize Odoo applications without writing a single line of code!
  • Create your own Odoo Application from scratch
  • Learn to extend Odoo models with your own custom fields
  • Modify views to display the information the users require
  • Create your own custom search filters
  • Learn how to create your own custom menus.

Will this video teach you everything you need to know about Odoo? No. The purpose is to give you a solid foundation and understanding of the Odoo framework and give you essential knowledge in Mastering Odoo Development.

4. Mastering Odoo Development uses a Real Business Example

Odoo Class has created more than 200 professional Odoo videos. In all our video courses we always look at how to use Odoo to solve real world business problems. Unlike many video courses that just show you a set of disconnected examples or walk you through a tutorial that is already on other websites... this video is based on a real world example. Using a requirements driven approach we see how to extend product records with far more detailed information.

5. Updated Content - A strong foundation for becoming an expert Odoo Developer

This video course will continue to be updated to include all the important topics for becoming a solid Odoo Developer. With this course you will have a solid foundation to begin exploring more advanced topics and videos.
