Create new module “HelloWorld” – in Magento

Do you want to create a new page in Magento ? or Do you want to create a new module in Magento ? If yes, Then ok, just spend 10 minutes and follow below steps.
Objectives: I will create a new page in Magento whose output will be “Hello World ! I am a Magento Guy..”.
Target: Create a new module called “HelloWorld”
Step 1: Module Declaration
Create app/etc/modules/M4U_HelloWorld.xml and write below code

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<config>

         <modules>

                <M4U_HelloWorld>

                        <active>true</active>

                        <codePool>local</codePool>

                </M4U_HelloWorld>

         </modules>

</config>

Step 2: Module Configuration
a. Create a controller class app/code/local/M4U/HelloWorld/controllers/IndexController.php

class M4U_HelloWorld_IndexController extends Mage_Core_Controller_Front_Action

{

    public function indexAction()

    {

     $this->loadLayout(array('default'));

     $this->renderLayout();

    }

}

b. Create a Block class app/code/local/M4U/HelloWorld/Block/HelloWorld.php

class M4U_HelloWorld_Block_HelloWorld extends Mage_Core_Block_Template

{

  // necessary methods

}

c. create configuration xml in app/code/local/M4U/HelloWorld/etc/config.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<config>

    <global>

        <modules>

                <m4u_helloworld>

                        <version>0.1.0</version>

                </m4u_helloworld>

        </modules>

    <blocks>

            <helloworld>

                <rewrite>

         <helloworld>M4U_HelloWorld_Block_HelloWorld</helloworld>

        </rewrite>

            </helloworld>

     </blocks>

        </global>

       <frontend>

                <routers>

                        <helloworld>

                                <use>standard</use>

                                <args>

                                      <module>M4U_HelloWorld</module>

                                      <frontName>helloworld</frontName>

                                </args>

                        </helloworld>

                </routers>

        <layout>

            <updates>

                <helloworld>

                      <file>helloworld.xml</file>

                </helloworld>

            </updates>

            </layout>

        </frontend>

</config>

Define Frontend Template :
1. Define page layout in app/design/frontend/M4U/default/layout/helloworld.xml
N.B: Use default instead of M4U as template location if you use default design packages. Means create file in app/design/frontend/default/default/layout/helloworld.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>

    <layout version="0.1.0">

        <helloworld_index_index>

            <reference name="root">

                <action method="setTemplate"><template>page/1column.phtml</template></action>

            </reference>

            <reference name="content">

                <block type="helloworld/helloworld" name="hello" template="helloworld/helloworld.phtml"/>

            </reference>

        </helloworld_index_index>

    </layout>

2. Create template file app/design/frontend/M4U/default/template/helloworld/helloworld.phtml and write down
N.B: Use default instead of M4U as template location if you use default design packages. Means create file in app/design/frontend/default/default/template/helloworld/helloworld.phtml
Hello World ! I am a Magento Guy..
