Hey I'm Lee. My blog was put up to house useful nuggets I could refer back to, document my learning curves on new technologies and house tutorials I write for Umbraco and other .NET stuff.

All thoughts and comments on here are my own, and in no way reflect my employer - I also take no responsibility for spelling, grammar or terminology, so read at your own risk!

List Of Free / Open Source ASP.NET Web Applications

Monday, July 07, 2008

As a big ASP.NET advocate, I'm loving the recent surge in open source / free ASP.NET applications that are hitting the web - And what's more because Microsoft have given us some great building foundations with the frameworks like the ASP.NET Membership Provider, a lot of these open source programs are very high quality!  More so than some of the paid applications.

I thought it would be a good idea to create an ever growing list of all the open source ASP.NET applications I could find - Obviously I haven't had chance to download or install every application so I can't vouch for them
