Introduction

Cuyahoga is an open source .NET web site framework. It provides content management capabilities and has a modular approach. Currently it works with MS .NET 2.0 with SQL Server, PostgreSQL or MySQL as database backend. Also, from version 1.5.2, Mono is fully supported again.

The main goal of the project is to show .NET developers that there is a different way of building web applications than the well known sample applications. Although the project is targeted primarily at .NET developers, anybody interested can download the source and start playing.

Cuyahoga 0.8.0 released

A new Cuyahoga release has seen the light. Highlights are:

  • RemoteContent module
    Display content on your site from external sources. Combining multiple sources in one list is possible. The external content is cached locally. You can let the content refresh asynchronously to reduce page loading time when the cached content is expired. Currently only RSS 2.0 feeds are supported as external sources.
    Take a look here for an example of this module.
  • Downloads module
    Upload files that become available for download. The amount of downloads is count and you can restrict download permissions for individual roles and individual files.
See the release notes for the complete list of changes. Download it here (of course, this is the new Downloads module :)).

Originally, the Downloads module was planned to be a document management module, but it has become a simple file distribution module. You can have to extend the Downloads module yourself if you want more document management facilities. In the near future there will be a module development guide that uses the Downloads module as an example.
