Simply you can open the solution and have a look at https://github.com/OrchardCoreContrib/OrchardCoreContrib.Modules/tree/main/src, like other modules, you can create a new module, then add a reference to OrchardCoreContrib.Modules.Web so you will be able to test your newly added module

I suggest we need to list all the required features as a checklist, then we can track them later easily. I'm waiting for your suggestion then I can participate to why you add

@DrewBrasher do you have a plan to start one this?

DrewBrasher commented 11 months ago

I am ready to get started on it. Would I just fork this repo and add a new project to the src folder? Do you have any suggestions for what to name the project?

hishamco commented 11 months ago

You can create your module inside src folder like the other modules https://github.com/OrchardCoreContrib/OrchardCoreContrib.Modules/tree/main/src

Then you can add a reference in OrchardCoreContrib.Modules.Web project to test it

IssueTracker

DrewBrasher commented 9 months ago

I've created a module for this in my https://github.com/DrewBrasher/OrchardCoreContrib.Modules/tree/IssueTrackerModule fork to start working on this. Right now it is just what the visual studio template from Lombiq created.

I used the one called "Orchard Core CMS Module".

You could push a draft PR and we might participate with each other
