I've been wanting to use Umbraco as a content editor for several existing sites (applications, mostly MVC3) for a while. But without disturbing the existing "infrastructure" (routing & rendering) of my app at all. So my question is : can I disable the Umbraco front end routing&rendering someway? Only letting Umbraco handle everything /umbraco and other stuff that Umbraco needs for it to work.
My workaround currently is to use a external Umbraco site for contents and get nodes from it with Json. It works, but is not optimal for several reasons. (https://github.com/joeriks/UmbracoExternalContents)
I have not tried this, but you should be able to just delete the default.aspx file, i belive that is the starting point for the umbraco routing. If this works, you should be able to disable some of the modules and handlers used for routing, just to clean things up :)
I have not tried this, but this is how i would try. Hope it works :)
Override (or rather disable) Umbraco default front end routing&rendering
