Creating a Module

You can produce a module in different ways:

Create an entire module from scratch. For very simple modules, you can use the DNN Module Creator.
Start with module development templates, such as:
- DNN 8 Templates
- Chris Hammond's DotNetNuke Module and Theme Development Templates (Installation instructions)
Customize a pre-existing module.
Thousands of third-party modules and themes are available from these sources:
- DNN Store: Extensions for sale. Some developers provide versions that include the source code.
- DNN Forge: Open source and free extensions.

You can also use different programming frameworks (Web Forms, MVC, SPA) and languages (C#, VB) to create your module.
