How to customise content elements in typo3?


I have just begun my Typo3 journey. There is not much typo3 content available over the internet. I have gone through its documentation. As far as I have understood it, the ideal way of creating a website (frontend) is using content elements from backend and customising it according to our need in code (using CSS). My Question is how can I do so? How can I find the code of all my used content elements so that I can use my own CSS to style it according to my need? Or is there any other ideal or professional way of creating a webpage that mostly developers use? Please please help me with my questions.

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE :)


Solution

  • I suggest to look into one of the following 2 extensions which allow to create content element types within a nice backend module:

    Both come with a manual and it is afterwards easy to adopt the based default templates and apply the HTML you need

    for the page structure I suggest to use something like https://jweiland.net/typo3/typo3-template-version-11.html or the bootstrap package https://www.bootstrap-package.com/ which also come with various custom content elements already

    if you are german speaking you can also take a look at the video tutorials of wolfgang wagner which can be found at https://wwagner.net/
