Learning and working with Umbraco

I was placed on a project recently using Umbraco.  Without revealing any proprietary information, there’s a .NET Core web application that needs to work with dynamic content.   Umbraco was chosen as the CMS.   For those not familiar with Umbraco, it’s an open source CMS implemented in ASP.NET/MVC.   You can write a web site from within Umbraco and have it read from its own content.   In our application, we are using Umbraco for creating/maintaining the content and then publishing that content over to the .NET Core application.   Umbraco also provides hooks as you can enable the REST api and then reach out to Umbraco to update/pull content, etc…

I created a quick video with a recommendation on one of the best free tutorials on Umbraco that I could find.  In this video, it will explain what you will learn if you follow along with the tutorial.   Thanks for reading.

Here’s the video

The source code that I created while following along with this tutorial can be found here in case you wanted to save yourself some typing.
