I have managed to download and install Umbraco 5 on Localhost. And now I want to start playing around with editing the UI for it.
The way I've usualy done this, is to open the application in Visual Studio 2010 and edit the Views that way, however with Umbraco 5 I can not see any Visual Studio Solution.
How would I go about editing things ? Do I have to open each View separatley in Notepadd++ or the equivalent ?
Would greatly appreciate some information on this matter.
I would recomed you to not change the core, upgrading will not be fun! Most things can be done using plugins! The source code is found at umbraco.codeplex.com if you want to look at it. Almost everything in the core back office is created as plugins so theres no need to change the acctual core.

Hi. You can just open your umbraco site dir as site with "File -> Open Site".
Hello Rodion
Thank You, so there is no 'Visual Studio Solution' that I can get ? I might want to make edits to the models and core classes !
