If you know of additional resources useful to beginning developers, please feel free to edit this document to add them.


If you install Domino Designer, and open the built-in help, there's a pretty good introduction to how development is done.

This wiki contains lots of good information for beginners. You might just read the whole FAQs Category; you will almost certainly run in to all these issues at some point.

Domino Designer 6 A Developer's Handbook, though a little dated, still covers the basics. Ignore the sections on web development, since this is better done using XPages now.

Pre built Applications
