Danielle, did you know about Development:Modules, which is linked to from Developer_documentation#Make_a_new_plugin? You may be better off editing that, rather than starting a new page. However don't let me discourage you. That documentation is very limited, and badly needs to be expanded, so it is absolutely brilliant that you want to work on it.--Tim Hunt 12:03, 28 March 2008 (CDT)

Good point Tim! Anyway... I think we can use this as temporary root for Daniele's work and then, simply, move things to their final place. Let's see how this evolves. -- Eloy Lafuente (stronk7) 12:33, 28 March 2008 (CDT)

My powerpoint about creating moodle modules is a bit old (1.8) and maybe not that comprehensible but I use it when I'm trying to explain things to people. It includes a list of all the things you need to have in a module, except the ones I forgot (backuplib iirc is missing). Sam marshall 12:52, 28 March 2008 (CDT)
