Listen to such requests and it may be a great help in finding the idea for a new extension.” - BelVG

And, in the development stage provide your extensions with integrational tests, at least.” - aheadWorks

"Leverage Magento resources! Building an extension doesn't need to be a solo project. The Magento team offers so many resources and support options for developers, that it is super important to be an active member of the developer community and leverage the work that has already been done.

While writing our extension, we were constantly in touch with the product, project and development managers at Magento to ensure that we deliver the absolute best experience to the merchant, but more importantly, to their end user, the client.” – Celebros

Tip #4: Be Relevant and Differentiate Yourself From Other Extensions

“Wherever possible, use plugins (preferably on methods that have an @api annotation) to implement your functionality. This will reduce the scope for possible conflicts with other extensions, and lessen support issues later down the road (and who doesn't love that?).” – Fooman

“Chances are you're investing in a Magento 2.0 platform for two major reasons: 1) you want a better client side experience along with, 2) an improved, more nimble usability for your team. Why not hold the same standards to your tech stack? Stick to extensions that talk with each other both on the front end as well as the back end—meaning they make the most of the audience and data you have already acquired! For example, if one technology collects real time browsing data or even social influencer data, ensure they're sharing that data in real time with your A/B testing or personalization provider. The data you collect is only as great as what you do with it!” –Addshoppers

Tip #7: Learn About Shared Packages

The purpose of Shared Packages is to sort out your Composer modules. Shared Packages functionality gives developers more fine-grained control for sorting out code. Developers that already have or envision having different items in their portfolio (whether they be extensions or themes) that share normal code and libraries will want to exploit Shared Packages. This functionality permits developers to advertise their items as a set and increase their sales. A developer can specify, for instance, that in order for customers to run extension B, customers must first purchase and install extension A. Creation of shared packages is significant just for products for the Magento 2.0 platform. All shared code and shared libraries can be zipped and uploaded one-by-one (one zip file per module) via the “Shared Packages” tab.

Tip #8: Think Carefully About Pricing

Most developers are familiar with models that are akin to the app stores (Apple, Google, Microsoft etc.), with free apps, paid apps, in-app purchases etc. As with any product on the market, think about the customer - the retail merchant -- and the value your extension will provide to them. If beta tests or data has shown you a certain Return on Investment (ROI) or benefit that you can produce for the merchant, price such that you can provide at least a 2x-3x ROI within 12 months. Having a scalable pricing model that delivers significant ROI and business outcomes is key to helping both developers & merchants realize value for extensions that power innovation, efficiency & revenue growth.” – Windsor Circle
