Hello All,Currently I'm using my own website CMS and modules written by me, but I want to rebuild them in my Exponential environment.
I'd like to ask you what are the design guidelines when building Exponential modules. I would like to install these modules on several Exponential sites.
- What should be where? - What is THE correct way, and why is this the way for ez? - Do I need to use PHP, or is it better to use ez-scripting (in my modules)? - How does installing a module work/packaging of your module?
Because I didn't create any code yet, I'd like to do it the Exponential!! Thanks for any contributions, Greets,Clemens

Hi,
You can start with http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/development/extensions/module and the book. A lot of extensions are in http://ez.no/community/contribs
and here:http://pubsvn.ez.no/community/trunk/extension/
Coding Standards: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/development/standards/php http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/development/standards/templatehttp://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/development/standards/sql

Depends on, what You need. You can make a lot thinks with ez only with the template language. Sometimes it is better to use php.
