CQ 5.6 Documents

[Zarvis]

Hi All, 

       I am new to CQ , I perviously worked on Java, Spring project. I have gone through http://dev.day.com for CQ material,but most of the docuements 

      talks about "how to do" , but unfortunatly i didn't get any document which give me information about "How it's works" , if you see Java, spring  you have 

      full flow control how object is created and how all the request is working but in the CQ for me it is very diffcult to understand those concept, 

      I am type of a guy , who wants first how it's working instead of " how to do" .

      Please suggest me some material or link, to update my knowlegde for CQ.

       Thanks in Advacne,

Hi,

CQ is based on some open source technologies that you should understand:

• OSGi: http://www.osgi.org/Technology/WhatIsOSGi  http://felix.apache.org/
• Sling: http://sling.apache.org/
• JCR/Jackrabbit: http://jackrabbit.apache.org/getting-started-with-apache-jackrabbit.html 

Those links will give you a good starting point

As Scott correctly points out - when developing in CQ , you have to understand these concepts - such as OSGi/Sling/JCR. Most of the online docs for these subjects are theory.

Once you understand those concepts and theory - we have many How To articles with CQ. In addition to the online CQ documentation, there are community resources located at:

Here you will find additional resources such as videos, whitepapers (that explains what it is), community member blogs, and how to articles.
