Khepri Needed an Update, So We Built One with Khepri2
The Joomla community has had its fair share of discussions and debates over whether or not we (the community, not PixelPraise) should be building alternative admin templates for the software. As a whole, we can’t agree whether it causes too much confusion to be useful, or if it’s a great way to make training clients easier.
What I think most of us can agree on, though, is that our beloved CMS has a very outdated backend. One with usability concerns and unintuitive interfaces, it has been a cause for discussion for a while (ever since WordPress started their own highly intuitive re-designs, and Drupal started playing the makeover game too). Rather than wait far a solution to be proposed and discussed and built and finally implemented, we decided it was time to start making some moves on our own, and built Khepri2 (named after the current default admin template).
