OSS Spotlight - Build websites with a modern ASP.NET Core CMS – Orchard Core

Are you developing .NET web apps and are tired of reinventing the wheel with every project? Use a modern foundation to build on instead! In this session, we'll do a quick dive into working with the modern ASP.NET Core framework and web content management system (CMS) Orchard Core. We'll see what Orchard can provide you, how it goes beyond simple content management, and why you'd want to join such a cutting-edge open-source community.

Links shown at the end to help you get going with Orchard Core:

I remember reading about orchard many years ago. good to see it is still going strong. I will definetly test it out

I've been a fan of ProjectOrchard for years now. Thank you!

I wish you had shared more of the build script you used. I would like to see a "step-by-step" command line build using WSL or Linux, like doing a "minimal web api". this really helps me visualize dockerizing the build. Can we see the script or maybe a video building from CLI and maybe using VS Code?

Would be nice know more about the database schema and the ideas used for that.

Great presentation, thank you. Out of all the presentations here, I'm not seeing anything dealing with a customer management system that would have database records such as customer records, opportunity activity records, etc... Like records you would find in a Salesforce application.

What if you start with Agency template and want to add Blog to the same website? Is that possible? Thanks.

i would like to see a full razor and or blazor template like the blog liquid one included by default
will make it much easier for asp developer to start a new sites with orchard with few theme customization like with wordpress

Hello, thanks for the content. How do we integrate orchard to existing asp. Net core 6 project? Thanks

I am curious how the database schema works, is there some place I can see it or I have to download and install it and see it on my own database? Specifically I wonder how these items that are defined work on a database level. It seems like a blog post would not have the fields for a blogpost in a table but will have a collection of field name/field value pairs

[ahmedfattal]

what if I want a database, authorization and authentication can I build it on top of it?

I think introducing Orchard Core as a CMS makes the product appear much smaller and less valuable than it is.
