How do i write asp.net core websites inside of vs 2019?

[zedjr]

I have a site written in asp.net core 3.1 or 5 and i want to learn orchard core. I am thinking this will be a decoupled site and want to transfer it to a orchard core cms so something can be easily edited from admin panel. This is like a beginner project so i can learn orchard they way i need to use it. I see tutorials but they are inside of using the admin panel. SO many more advantages writing code inside of VS 2019. Intellisense for one and I don't want to work this way. I see the one tutorial from orchard site for a decoupled site but am totally lost by minute 1. Not showing or explaining on how to set it up or anything. I though honestly I could just add my own service , configure it and then just use tag wrappers around my html or something that needs to be edited by user. That is really my first set of goals in learning orchard. If anyone can direct me in the write direction I would appreciate it.

FYI Orchard Core support multi-targeting 3.1 & 5.0, it runs fine in VS 2019

You could start with default ASP.NET Core project template, then add an OC module. There's a rich docs in http://docs.orchardcore.net/ also you can find some videos on YouTube by @sebastienros explained OC in ASP.NET Community Standup

ok i see the example is using razor pages. Do i fllow this guide first then the guide on "Create a Modular Application". I want to write my own controller and views and where i need manageable content add a module i guess? It is jsut so confusing to me the guide on create a modular application and then this guide. Which is what?

The guide uses Razor Pages as an example, However nothing stops you to use Controller/Views instead of Razor Pages.

ok thank you. As easy as that sounds that helps in my state of confusion. So am curious why is there a section separately just for mvc it seems labeled " Create a Modular Application".
