Looking for object modifiers

Many years ago I used to be an 18 hr/day Blender user, had my own game project and used to design space ships and stations. Then the interface was changed drastically and I couldn’t find my way around. That, and some personal problems, put an end to my open source game project. Now I’m trying to use Blender again, just for a project at work that needs 3D representation, but I’m having the same troubles; spend about an hour looking for how to do the simplest things. Now I’m looking for how to put the Edge Split modifier on an object. It used to be so easy! I started looking at 2pm, now it’s 4:30, and I’ve gone meticulously through all the menus and panels and sub-pannels, and I can’t find where the modifiers are added. In the manual… Nothng about it in the Interface chapter…
https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/interface/index.html
Then in the Modifiers Panel page…
https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/modeling/modifiers/introduction.html#fig-modifiers-panel-layout
it talks about what modifiers do, and what the panel looks like; but it doesn’t say where/how does one GET the pannel.
I’m going insane…

Properties window(lower right by default), Blue wrench icon is the modifier properties panel.

Ahhh, wonderful! Thanks!
