For Course Builder Developers

If you want a feature that is not currently available in Course Builder, you can create it yourself or use a customization from a third-party.

You need programming experience or knowledge to make these customizations. This Developer section assumes you have such experience or knowledge.

This section is divided into four parts:

• Get Started - how to find the source repository and run a Course Builder course on the development server.

• Customize Course Builder - an overview of the customization process

• Explore Directories - an overview of the Course Builder directory structure and contents

• Specific Sub-Tasks - descriptions and instructions for common customization tasks

General advice

• We do not advise editing the Course Builder code directly since upgrading and ongoing maintenance may become very cumbersome and even produce unexpected results.

• Google and Course Builder cannot make any guarantees about third-party modules or extensions or take any responsibility for them.

• Test custom modules thoroughly on a development server before you deploy to your students.
