Hi!
I've been away for sometime.
I want to say WOW. The Nautilus rocks!
I need to get involved deeper into the whole thing. I feel the need to learn to do more, than adapt existing templates to my needs.
Instead, I want to learn to do a completely amazing websites using Nautilus.
Please recommend resources to begin with.
My current skill level is HTML - some; CSS - some (wish I knew more about CSS3).
PHP none, MySQL some.
Please advice some resources to begin with.
I think it will save me some time to know what I should cover instead of browsing the documentation, which I find intimidating at most.
Thank you!

If you don't know PHP and you don't want to learn PHP then you can't develop anything...
So, what is left? HTML/CSS meaning templates (although you still need to write some PHP there too).
Elxis is written in PHP, a powerful and very easy to learn programming language. If you want to develop applications for Elxis you have to learn PHP.
Elxis 4.x includes libraries which make the developer's life easy. For the hardest tasks you can use the Elxis libraries instead of writing everything from scratch. Many of these libraries are documented in Elxis docs (https://www.elxis.net/docs/). There are many excellent tutorials on the net (https://www.google.com/search?q=php+tutorials) for beginners in learning PHP.
An developer working with Elxis should know php, html, css, javascript.

I was going to make a mistake reading through the documentation.
