This chapter will explain the various ways in which you can extend DeVIDE's functionality. This mostly happens via the creation of new DeVIDE modules.  There are various types of modules that one can create, this chapter documents most of 'em.

Other possibilities for extending DeVIDE include writing Snippets (a kind of poor man's plugins) or simply making use of the CodeRunner module.  The latter is recommended if you want to test your idea as quickly as possible and can't be bothered with reading manuals. Making a new module, although taking slightly more time, has its advantages, such as more flexibility, easier distribution, and creating DeVIDE MiniApps!
