We will migrate Smartstore from ASP.NET to the more modern ASP.NET core and release it as Smartstore 5.
ASP.NET Core 6 is a cross-platform
open
source framework from Microsoft for building modern Web applications. Among many other advantages of ASP.NET Core, we expect faster and
more convenient development.
Right now, Smartstore 5 Core is available for download since March 2022 as beta release on Windows/MSSQL,
Linux/MySQL, MacOS and Docker.
We have completed porting most of our commercial plugins to Smartstore 5. Few (like Web API 5) are in progress
to end of 2022.
After the complete release of ASP.NET Core based Smartstore 5, we will continue the development
of Smartstore as usual with new great features.
Stay tuned and look forward with us to the upcoming Smartstore releases!
