Presentation - Demonstration of DotNetNuke 6.x

DotNetNuke is both a powerful Web Content Management System (CMS) and a Web application development framework. The flexible DotNetNuke architecture allows you to easily add functionality or change the appearance of your web site through the addition of DotNetNuke apps. You can choose from nearly 10,000 commercial apps in the DotNetNuke Store, hundreds of free apps in the DotNetNuke Extensions Forge, or build you own custom apps. DotNetNuke features an open API to empower your own custom app development. DotNetNuke also ships with Unit Tests beginning with version 5.5 to make building and testing your custom development work faster and easier than ever before.

We'll go through an install of a new site, and then demo as many of the features as we have time for.

Also, if there's time, I'd love to go through a quick intro/demo of Bootstrap, from Twitter - "A Simple and flexible HTML, CSS, and Javascript for popular user interface components and interactions." I've been using it for a couple different projects lately, and have really been impressed by it.

Speaker - Brian Swanson

Brian has been developing on the .Net platform for over 10 years now, the last 7 of which have been as a self-employed developer doing contract/project work for companies around the country. He's the current leader of the Memphis .Net User Group, as well as a co-founder of GiveCamp Memphis. When he's not in front of a computer, chances are he's either running, or drinking beer, or both. The only thing Brian hates more than writing about himself in the third person, is having to write a bio about himself.
