Snowy2 CMS - ASP.NET MVC - Entity

[AspFan]

tribute to RoverCMS

​

1. I have no idea whatsoever how to write a development thread.
   
2. I am a second year student perusing a degree in computer science. I have been around the Habbo scene for.. long enough but I never got around to (didn't know how to) start writing a CMS.
   
3. Snowy is coded in ASP.NET using MVC.
   
4. Snowy uses Entity Framework, Microsoft's recommended data access technology for new applications.
5. Snowy will use SignalR for various planned features that will require realtime.

Features

• Membership system (register/ login/ logout/ account settings) (100%) - uses a custom Membership provider along with forms authentication
• News system (90%) - currently implementing edit/ delete comments
• Campaigns system
• Chat system - lightweight chat system which makes use of SignalR
• Badge/ furni shop
• Rare values system
• Auction system - live auction of rare furni
• Lottery system (aka vault)
• Help system - lets users send message to a mod/ admin
• Habbo Homes - will come last

This is mainly for education purposes and a weekend thing so don't expect it to be released any time soon!

What mvc version are you going to use and good luck!

MVC3 because it was default when I used the MySQL wizard to generate the connection string Are there any major differences between different MVC versions?

Not much, just async tasks can come in handy.

Take a look at:

But asp.net 5 (asp.net vnext) has changed a lot, dynamic compilation, improved speeds, everything in one project (mvc, webforms, signalr, webapi). I wouldn't use it though, you are stuck with entity framework which can be a pain in the butt sometimes. I would stick to a entity data model or linq to sql far more easier.

Mvc is currently at version 6 if i am not mistaken.
