      Hello everyone! I’m new to using modules and I am struggling with adding a new one.

      So I made a module like it should (almost exact copy of clock module), added it to the defaultmodules.js file and the config.js file. When I run the application, it does not show my module. Do I need to add in on other places too for it to be loaded?

      Thank you in advance!

        @tripc change the filename.js to match your module name, and change inside that file the register name to match the module name.

        U didn’t have to add to defaults list, in config.js just use
        module:“defaults/???”,

        and shouldn’t put things in there anyhow.
