Per lo sviluppo di un componente in Joomla! 1.6 ecco la naming convention:

• componente: com_{Component_name}
• controller: {Component_name}Controller
• models: {Component_name}Model{Controller_name}
• view: {Component_name}View{Controller_name}
• table: {Component_name}Model{Controller_name}
• template: view{view_type}.php
