Let's say I want to develop a plugin for Volumio plugin to do x

Hello there folks.

I literally asked this question today as I was shuffling through the Volumio documentation for a custom solution.

Let’s say I want to develop something like a volumio plugin to do X. Now bear with me, let’s say I have little idea of what this would require and that all the programming experience is from school, but the project seems not so complicated.

How does one begin to write a plugin? Where does one look first? What language will it be written in? What do you need to research prior to writing it?

Thank you for your time all

Also look at other volumio plugins – you might find a plugin that does Y, that can be easily adapted to do X :wink:
