      Does anyone have anything they could recommend in learning how to make a basic module (step by step tutorial, screen shots, or video to follow)?

      I’ve read through both:

      https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror
      and
      https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/8534/head-first-developing-mm-module-for-extreme-beginners

      Though I wanted to know if there were any other ones anyone would recommend aside from just playing with 3rd party modules and seeing how they run.

      Thanks

        @particlex u can start with my sample module. It uses all the basic structure and communications between the UI portion ( modulename.js) and the back end (node_helper.js)

        But there are a lot of knowledge dependencies. You know how a web page works, html, for look style sheets (css), know some object oriented programming.
