As you may know, we have recently released Sun Framework, a brand new template framework with great flexibility and power, and an excellent Joomla template named JSN Shine. Additionally, we have also introduced the 2nd generation versions of several ‘best-selling’ JSN templates, namely JSN Epic, JSN Metro, JSN Solid and JSN Megazine. There have been questions about the differences between these two generations as well as our policies for existing 1st gen. templates, which are created with the old template framework. This short article aims at further clarifying the most important points concerning these two template generations.

WHAT IS JSN SHINE?
JSN Shine is one of the most versatile premium Joomla templates. It’s made with months of non-stop coding, testing and improving from JoomlaShine. It’s also a unique multipurpose Joomla template out there with 9 different niche templates inside. There are 9 different complete templates for different niches: eCommerce, corporate, news, portfolio, sport, education, NGO/charity…
WHY JSN SHINE IS DIFFERENT?
JSN Shine is not only different from any other mainstream Joomla templates in the market. It’s also truly different from what JoomlaShine has been building.
1. Built with the first truly revolutionary Joomla Template Framework
The skeleton of JSN Shine is a brand new Joomla Template Framework – called Sun – from JoomlaShine.
Sun Framework is our state-of-art Joomla template framework. It’s a revolution from the old and current platforms by giving you a totally new way of stacking and creating a beautiful look for your Joomla website.
Are you just tired of the limited layout options that you need to write your own code to add a new position? Does the lack of advanced built-in fields irritate you each time you want to customize your web layout? Do you wish for a quick preview while working on your site’s look or do you just need a smoother mega menu builder?
Sun framework not only resolves the current problems of other platforms, it actually fulfill your very need of master building your Joomla site with the absolute flexibility as well as intuitiveness in each task.
How did we make Sun the best Joomla template framework out there?
It is the product of nearly a year collecting feedback from current JoomlaShine template framework users, researching the Joomla market demands as well as diving in the depth to analyze the pros and cons of other Joomla template platforms.
So, with Sun framework as its backbone, JSN Shine brings you a totally new experience of building a Joomla website.
Joomla! World Conference (JWC) 2016 in Vancouver is Joomla community’s 5th world conference. In case you don’t know, JWC is for gathering up Joomlers from around the world to share, learn and contribute to one of the best open source CMS.
JoomlaShine team including Victor and I are very honored and proud that this is the second time JoomlaShine joined and sponsored for the biggest Joomla event.
In JWC 2016, there was no room for lazy Joomlers. The 38 sessions in 3 days presented by Joomla specialists from many countries kept everyone busy from actively joining in. Everyone tried to get the most out of JWC too by visiting all sponsor’s booth and networking with others throughout the event.
There were also some very interesting keynote topics about technologies from Luke Summerfield (Hubspot), Eric Kwan (Google), Tadhg Healy (Vancouver’s Digital Services Manager), etc.
At JoomlaShine's booth, we had the chance to meet up with many JoomlaShine's long time customers. Eagerly, we introduced our latest products: JSN Shine template and JSN PageBuilder v2 to almost every Joomler here.
Beside, I’m happy that we could share our vision about Joomla UX, meet many Joomla friends and discuss with them some off-Joomla topics: our country’s foods and traditions, traveling experience...
And of course, at this grand Joomla World Conference, together we discussed about the state of Joomla and its future. I guess this is the most exciting part of all.
As far as we’ve known, Joomla, again, won the Best Free CMS Award and it’s still the second popular CMS of the world. As Sarah Watz presented at the event, Joomla still has a bright future ahead and it will get more support by a powerful community.
We already have the clear roadmap for Joomla 3.7, 3.8 and even 4.0 now. More importantly, Joomla X - which is still under 1st phase of development, will be the revolutionary version which enhances Joomla a lot and make it an easy to use and extendable CMS.
I’m very excited for thinking about how much Joomla will improve over the next year!
JoomlaShine team and our mission for Joomla
We’re proud that JoomlaShine is one of the top Joomla template and extension providers. As a trusted brand in Joomla, we’ll continue supporting Joomla community by sponsoring more events, joining more meetups and creating more of the most easy to use products for Joomla.
