Featured DotNest site: Orchard Beginner!

We're pleased to announce a brand new DotNest site that will be a massive help for Orchard newcomers: Orchard Beginner! Orchard Beginner really aims to help those who're just starting with Orchard. The site's content is still being expanded rapidly but it already gives Orchard rookies some very essential guidelines. Orchard Beginner is maintained by the well-known Orchard Dojo trainer Abhishek Luv!

Demo Orchard sites on DotNest: Try Orchard!

So what if you're a total newcomer to Orchard but want to see it in action, without having to download, install, set up anything or signing up anywhere (not even DotNest)? You can Try Orchard! Try Orchard is just a quick prototype right now, but you can see that it's a set of periodically re-installed DotNest tenants that you can play with. There is also a possibility to have an interactive walk-through for users to get an overview of Orchard, as you can see from the three inline popups that greet you. You can also see a demo of the demo site (yes :-)) on the recording of the weekly Orchard Community Meeting, although screen sharing didn't work for the first half. So Try Orchard! is just in its infancy but it works! Now if you want to convince your buddy to take a look at this awesome CMS just tell them to Try Orchard!

Featured DotNest site: Orchard Spring Harvest Challenge

The Orchard Spring Harvest Challenge is a module development competition with Orchard 1.8 compatibility in its center. For more information please visit the event's website.

Featured DotNest site: Native Hungarian

In the series of featured DotNest sites we intend to give some publicity to the nicest DotNest sites: starting with Native Hungarian! Native Hungarian is a blog (with lots of own photos) about Hungarian (Eastern-Central Europe) every day. Yes, that country that managed to produce the Rubik's Cube (and where the inhabitants like to eat their food with paprika). All this published by a Hungarian photographer and arts student, Zita Gyurokovics. Through the lens of Zita's camera you can get a bit closer to Hungary if you ever wondered how life is going there. Maybe also fancy a visit? Check out the blog to find out! Do you want your site to be featured? Just get in touch with us!
