People who develop extensions for the Achievo project manager, or even applications in ATK, use the
pizza guides as a first introduction into developing using the ATK framework.
I often get the question where Part 3 can be downloaded. Problem is, I never found the time to finish it. I've got one chapter, and an idea what the rest of the document should contain. Since it doesn't seem to get finished anytime soon, I'll post what I have so far here:
Developing Achievo Extensions, Part 3 (Advanced)
The chapter talks about node modifiers. This is a method to change nodes without actually touching their code. This is a powerful way to extend ATK modules.
The first two guides should be revised sometime for ATK5, they were written in 2002, and ATK has come a long way since then. But they still have some use as the basics have not changed much.
I do
accept incentives to complete the series.
