Make sure you follow the
7 Golden Rules
Rule #1
Start with the user. Then function. Then technology. Then simplicity.
Rule #2
Make your application as simple as possible. Keep the code ultra-clean and don't add unrelated functions and sub-programs.
Rule #3
Stick to the interface. Make the menus vertical with maximum 6 elements. Give your elements names that reflect their functionality.
Rule #4
If the function of an plugin can be embedded into another plugin, don't make it. Instead, contact the developer of the other plugin and suggest to collaborate to enhance its functionality.
Rule #5
Test your add-ons thoroughly, with a blindfold.
Rule #6
Don't make the users dependent on your application for survival. If you application fails, nothing should be at risk.
Rule #7
Don't think profit. It will only lead to shortcuts and irrational decisions. If your application is good enough, money will come.
