By familiarizing yourself with the folders under the Configuration folder, you can discover the API for the areas you'll be extending and find working examples of each extension type.
Tip: The Configuration_ReadMe.htm file in the Configuration folder provides details on the contents of each subfolder.
One folder that does not correspond to a particular extension type is the Shared folder. The Shared folder is the central repository for utility functions, classes, and images that are commonly used by all extensions. For example, files in the Shared/MM/scripts/CMN folder contain functions that search all children of a node for a specific tag, strip spaces from a string, and generate the correct JavaScript reference to an object given its name, among other useful tasks.
