I am using Umbraco from a hosting supplier, but want to try to write a web service and therefore build a dll.

So I downloaded all the folders to my local machine and fired up Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition

I tried to create a project (as the hosted system doesn't include a project or solution file) from existing code.

From the menu, I chose

File

Project from existing code

choose C#

and selected my folder

It then asked for name and output type : however, the only output types available are

• Console Application

• Windows Application

• Class Library

There is no option for 'Web Site'

Has anyone come across this before? Do I need to change some settings? I assume this must be possible!
