About
DNN8 brings new approaches, tools and techniques to module development within DNN. In this “DNN Programming 101” course, we will cover them all, introduce you to SPA and MVC modules, but we will also stick with the “tried and true” module development approaches that work in DNN7 and DNN8. This is hands-on training, and we’ll provide the tools so that you can test and learn the current best practices and how to extend them to DNN8 and beyond.

Using a hand-on approach, each attendee will be tasked with creating a fully functional module to perform data entry and reporting.

Pre-Requisites
Attendees need to be versed in C# programming and some minimal SQL experience.
