Sharepoint is, put mildly, no bloody fun to work with. There are approximately four people in the world who are any good at it, and they work for Microsoft.
The documentation you can find (good luck) will be full of back end solutions, hive hacking, and no answers.
None of the posts here will touch on C# or back-end development, as most of what you can do back end can be done front-end faster, easier, and without having to know what a "sandbox solution" is. People will constantly tell you this is "not supported," but as it is very challenging to find out what is supported, this may be the best you, the administrator with web development experience, can manage.
Here, then, is a blog that collates the best of the best.
