I’m having trouble working through the v5 modules plugin and getting anything showing in the panel. Is there a step-by-step tutorial? Or a downloadable sample I could use as a starting point? I’ve tried to follow the steps in the README, to no avail. I cannot post code as I do not know where I am going wrong.

Hey @mr_datsun 👋

Good idea, the plugin might be a bit intimidating when you’re starting from scratch.  
I’ve now built [Moduleskit](https://github.com/medienbaecker/moduleskit) for this. It’s a Kirby installation with the Modules plugin pre-installed with a few simple modules.

If something still doesn’t click after poking around, just let me know.

Yes. It works. And now I can see how to make a module. I’ll play with it more once I get my current site finished. Thank-you for the example. Now easier to install and see it in action.
