Orchard
A free, open-source, community-focused Content Management System built on ASP.NET MVC with extensibility as its core design principle.
What is Orchard?
Orchard is a free, open-source Content Management System built on the ASP.NET MVC platform, designed to empower users with a highly extensible architecture. It solves the problem of rigid, hard-to-customize CMS platforms by offering a modular system where all components can be replaced or extended. Content is built from composable building blocks, enabling flexible and tailored content-driven websites.
Developers and organizations building content-driven websites on the .NET Framework who need a customizable, extensible CMS with strong community support. It's ideal for those who want to avoid proprietary CMS limitations and prefer open-source solutions.
Developers choose Orchard for its unparalleled extensibility, where every component can be modified or extended, and its decoupled module system allows features to apply across diverse content types. Its rich UI composition system and community-driven development ensure it evolves to meet real-world needs, offering a flexible alternative to rigid commercial CMS platforms.
