Best documented ASP.Net Open Source Projects

November 18, 2011 2:58 PM

I am looking for the best documented open source ASP.Net 4.0 website/application available. By 'documented' I am not referring to a user guide for the Wiki/Blog/E-Commerce site or whatever it is, I am referring to accompanying documentations which details how the code works, how it is put together. A document which would act as a guide to someone who was reviewing the code/design/database etc.. Documentation which would help a developer to understand the technical architecture and structure.

For example BlogEngine.NET is a great project and I have downloaded it and can debug it. However its documentation is directed to users and not developers.

No specific recommendations, but probably a good place to start looking: Github C# repos.

What's your goal here?

It's ASP.NET MVC, but NerdDinner is one of the best documented and talked about websites projects on the Microsoft stack.
