What are the best starter kits to study for learning Umbraco best practices, tips and trick? Anything besides starter kits worth looking at? Certain packages perhaps?
Many thanks Lee. To answer your question about what I hope to learn: yes to all of those things. Also interested in seeing how things are done with extension methods and other MVC stuff
What you've suggested is perfect for now though. Knowing Fanoe is recommended is useful, and since I'm building a simple blog for myself as my current side project, studying Articulate should be just the ticket.

Hi Charles,
While I don't have a definitive answer to your question, quite interestingly I've just replied on another topic with a similar vein.
https://our.umbraco.org/forum/extending-umbraco-and-using-the-api/75942-reference-site-best-practice
Back to your question, what knowledge do you hope to gain from the starter-kit? Is it doctype structure; property-alias naming; Razor snippets; etc?
Apart from Fanoe, I don't know of many other v7-supported starter-kits. Articulate would have many gems in it, but that's if you want a blog.
The v6 ones would be: Standard Website MVC or CWS Start.
Hope this might help?
Cheers,
