How to develop for opencart correctly?

Question

PHP

There are a lot of extra fields in opencart that I would simply remove, and the user does not need them.
But then we lose the ability to update the opencart.
Yes, and I would set everything up to the requirements, however, then if you change me, another programmer will have to work hard to figure out what's what.
And I don’t want to write a module for each function at all, it’s much easier to do it within the framework of the MVC, without registering the code as a module. Yes, and no time.

Answer 1

I recommend looking in the direction of vqmod, this will solve the problem with extra fields and updating. in fact, the engine code will not be changed.
