This chapter is about building websites using Umbraco CMS, a popular third-party web content management system.
There are many choices of CMS for most web development platforms. For cross-platform C# and .NET web developers, the best for learning the important principles is Umbraco CMS. It was one of the first CMSs to support modern .NET.
Umbraco has three related products: Umbraco CMS, Umbraco Cloud, or Umbraco Heartcore. Umbraco Heartcore is a headless system. Umbraco Cloud is hosted. We will look at Umbraco CMS because that gives you control over where you host it.
