FileMaker Pro developers will learn to design high-performance applications by following best practices in key areas including Layout Design, Database Design and Wide Area Network Design. This new guide is featured in FileMaker’s Developer Community. The FileMaker Technical Network is a free-to-join community of FileMaker enthusiasts that includes database developers, designers and users. In November 2011, members were introduced to the new FileMaker Developer Community with an updated site structure, profile and privacy features, and increased email functionality for notifications and discussion forums.
