Best way to develop a module

[bk_developer]

Hi 

What is the best way of developing a module on PrestaShop? I have been trying to develop a module from scratch but I am getting a lot of errors and the code is breaking again and again.   Should I rather make changes to the modules already made by PrestaShop instead of making one from scratch?

If you have a clear view of what you want to achieve, creating your own module from zero is the way to go. 

If you have any trouble constructing your module, start by using Prestashop's Module generator. This will give you an "skeleton" so you can start developing your own functions.

The most important thing is having prestashop's documentation at hand. Start here, https://devdocs.prestashop.com/1.7/modules/
