+# The Modular Structure
+
+The project of AzerothCore is based on a fully modular structure that is composed by:
+
+- Custom Modules
+- Core Modules
+
+**CUSTOM MODULES:**
+
+The main purpose of AzerothCore modules is to add/extend functionalities to your server avoiding as much possible the modification of AzerothCore code ( patching ).
+
+Currently you are able to:
+
+Create scripts that don’t need any patches for CMake / ScriptLoader
+
+Use script hooks that can operate from the very first start of the server ( as soon as the World initialization starts ) In this way you can handle / overwrite the server configurations.
+
+Use cmake special hooks, allowing you to inject your instructions during specific events ( e.g. after/before game library configuration )
+
+Create, Install and load your custom .conf files during the server startup, avoiding worldserver.conf.dist patching.
+
+Install other module dependencies using udw/joiner , a special bash script used by AzerothCore to maintain deps.
+
+Create and use include.sh in your root directory to interact with our bash system ( extend db_assembler, runner, compiler etc )
+
+*NOTE: *Even if core file modification is not suggested by AzerothCore project, developing as much as possible under your module and patching the core with small rows of code could be a good practice. You can eventually provide an install/uninstall script that can automatically patch/unpatch the core using our bash system.

+
+**CORE MODULES:**
+
+Core modules instead are composed by following projects: 
+
+- AzerothCore: The platform that includes all shared tools and sources to develop a WoW Server
+- World Engine: Our MMO framework on which the AzerothCore is based
+- HW-Core: Generic Libraries for c++
+- UWD: Generic tools used by our project
