@CliffConway simples example is to use the create module button in the module management. This will scaffold you a simple module a very good example. |

I have used the create module button and this is great as you say to scaffold a simple module. However, scaffolding is not the essence of my discussion point. It is actually the nitty gritty related to components. Now as I said this is a substantial body of work but possibly the Oqtane community can help in compiling these types of examples over a period of time to benefit noobees :-) |

@CliffConway are you saying that you would like to contribute some documentation for how to use the Oqtane UI components? There is a documentation project which is maintained by volunteers and contains a section on these components https://docs.oqtane.org/api/Oqtane.Modules.Controls.html. |

I have been investigating the use of Oqtane for around 3 weeks. I am very impressed with the framework and can see it helping in developing apps with out the need to get bogged down in underling pipework.
I might have missed any resources in the area of examples (willing to be corrected on this with any links?).
So, it seems that an examples library would be extremely useful. I have read the Linkedin article by Leigh Pointer "The Oqtane Module Components: A Comprehensive UI Toolkit for Seamless Module Development". This is very useful but leaves you hanging with its "Notable Parameters" meaning incomplete parameters and no examples of how to use the parameters
I appreciate this would be a body of work but possibly the addition of an examples tab (along side "Issues" and "Discussions) could help. The community could build this examples library up over a period of time thus help the new user speed up their investigations of the framework. I know I for one have spent many hours experimenting to find how a particular parameter can be configured and used - a simple example would save much time for many novices.
