Question

I received an assignment to develop a community to a club with about 1,000 members. Members shall be able to keep in touch, post pictures/movies and read about/register for events the club arranged.

I am looking to develop this in ASP.NET as it is what I know best (is it a wise choice?). I wonder if you could recommend any FREE framework or guide I can start from when I create the community.

Answer 1

You could either use:

1. DotNetNuke, Umbraco, MojoPortal or the likes – most of the code is already written, but creating new modules/features is not that easy/simple.
2. n2cms, Project Orchard – were made just to be especially to extend, although they have less built-ins.
