## From the page (probably an excerpt, not Jamie's words)

PHP Heaven is running a tutorial on building WordPress plugins. The tutorial is aimed at developers with a solid understanding of PHP and some familiarity with WordPress. I watched a similar tutorial live at WordCamp Portland in 2009, and it's true: if you know PHP and the correct WordPress commands, you can build a a marginally useful plugin in less than ten minutes.
