Hi everyone,
I am working on a custom PrestaShop module and want to follow best practices.

Points I am looking for:

  • Recommended folder structure

  • When to use hooks vs overrides

  • How to keep the module upgrade-safe

  • Performance and security tips

If you have real-world experience, please share your suggestions.
