Web Application Framework
DotNetNuke is provided as open-source software, licensed under a BSD agreement. In general, this license grants the general public permission to obtain the software free-of-charge. It also allows individuals to do whatever they wish with the application framework, both commercially and non-commercially, with the simple requirement of giving credit back to the DotNetNuke project community.
DotNetNuke is built on a Microsoft ASP.NET (VB.NET) platform, and is easily installed and hosted. With a growing community of over 650,000 users (as at Feb 2009), and a dedicated base of programming professionals, support for DotNetNuke is always close at hand.
In South Africa there is a growing community of DotNetNuke developers providing services locally and internationally.
