Modules in the Magento 2 file structure
Module files in Magento 2 are located in 2 directories.
1. app/code/<VendorName>/<ModuleName>/
2. vendor/<vendor-name>/<module-name>/
Vendor Name — is the name of the company/person that developed the module. In some cases, the name of the vendor may coincide with the name of the customer's company. Therefore, before developing a new module, the name should be agreed upon. In the examples, we use our name — Magefan.
Module files developed on order or modules from other companies installed via FTP are located in the app/code folder.
The vendor folder contains root modules, as well as modules installed using the Web Setup Wizard or Composer. You will find the Magento root modules in the vendor/magento folder.
Interesting to know:In the Magento 2 repository (dev branch) on GitHub (https://github.com/magento/magento2), all root modules are in the app code/Magento folder. And all PHP libraries are in lib/internal/Magento.
