Odoo 9 - cannot load custom module

I am brand new to odoo, just installed version 9 and made a module 'aidentest' using

.>>python odoo.py scaffold aidentest addons

That created the aidentest module in the addons folder. Uncommented everything in the autogenerated files

but when I went to check out my 'Hello World' page at

http://localhost:8069/aidentest/aidentest

I got a 404 not found

So I went to apps to try and load my module, but I could not find it.

Does anyone know what I need to do on Odoo 9 to load up and start coding my custom module?

Briefly: You have to activate developer mode by going to Top right menu>about>activate developer mode

I had basically given up, and was mindlessly clicking about when I hit the 'About' link on the generic-whiteguy dropdown. I had to actually stop thinking before I was able to locate the completely senseless place where they put the thing I need.

The About modal window popped up, and in it was an activate the developer mode button

Some things changed immediately, but I still couldn't find my custom module.

Then I walked away, came back and when I returned I had some auto-generated emails (new things had loaded - slowly). Did this mean that maybe my module had also become accessible? I checked, and sure enough, there it was.

ZERO DOCUMENTATION about this
