We have developed a custom framework using ASP.Net, Entity Framework 6 and the likes to enable launching our custom business applications. The framework uses WCF service bindings so the interfaces could be exposed as ordinary services (API) or webservices.
As for the front end we are currently using MVC3, but it really is a problem because the business users want a very configurable/customizable UI so they can change the look and feel of the apps dynamically.
I have been thinking of exploring the option of using a readymade CMS tool such as DNN or Umbraco or something similar. Does anyone have any experience using these tools with a custom framework? How do I build the CMS so it can use my framework services to pull/push data?
And off topic question. Can anyone point me in the direction of a decent tutorial about web scraping https://mydataprovider.com/ in vb.net or vba. All my searches so far have come up with poor results. Any suggestions most welcome.
