Hello All,
Currently I'm using my own website CMS and modules written by me, but I want to rebuild them in my ezPublish environment.

I'd like to ask you what are the design guidelines when building ezPublish modules. I would like to install these modules on several ezPublish 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 EZpublish!!
Thanks for any contributions,
Greets,
Clemens

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.
