I recently joined a new team and I am currently evaluating our Umbraco product, I need to make a decision to use it as is, upgrade it or retarget to a different platform. I downloaded the source code manually and also via NuGet, but I can't seem to see any controllers in source code.
Where can we download the source code for that?
I am also looking for a more strategic ideal way to integrate between a MVC ecomm app to Umbraco, read a few blogs about this topic but they usually only talk about the 'how', not about what is best.
Is Umbraco Open Source?

Would appreciate some help if someone know some of the answers.
Hi Sunny,
Yes, Umbraco is open source.
And it's correct that you don't see controllers when you install umbraco. This is because you don't need controllers to build a Umbraco based website.
The good thing is you can have them if you want or need them.
Have a look at the documentation of SurfaceControllers. I use surface controllers for Child Actions : https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Routing/surface-controllers
Also have a look at custom controllers : https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Routing/custom-controllers
Most projects don't need route hijacking by the way.
