Ever wanted to write a module for Xoops but don't know where to get started? Are you writing for Xoops and find the initial module setup tasks boring or tedious? This module writes a complete module skeleton for you and enables you to setup the user side and admin side pages and menus, configuration items and underlying data tables. You have to provide the page logic but you are safe in the knowledge that you are writing in a secure framework as used by all XBS modules.

- Framework to include common function in every page
- Structured approach to including language specific and non language specific constant defines in every page
- Shell page for every user and admin menu option
- Shell page for admin help page
- Admin menu in XBS module style allowing redirection to config page, home page, support site, documentation page and donations site
- One click module generation
Requires XBS Code Data Management (CDM) module to be installed first. Runs under Xoops 2.0.13 and 2.2.x
