EE Module Template by Packet Tide
Web agency Packet Tide posted an EE module template to Github. The module template gives you a starting point for your own module without having to write all of the basics from scratch.
You can find something similar at Pkg.io, too, which allows you easily create packages for all types of EE add-ons. The EE module template from Packet Tide, however, includes a couple of extras that you might find useful, like settings code and some breadcrumbs.
Packet Tide is also behind EE Harbor and the EE add-ons Safe Harbor, Polls and Transcribe.
