Umbraco Block Grid CG23 demo site

This repo contains the demo site from my Umbraco Block Grid talk at CodeGarden in June 2023.

The site is built on Umbraco 11.4, which means you need .NET 7 to run it.

The site DB is included in this repo, so you should be able to "just" clone the repo and run the site.

The credentials for the backoffice are:

  • Email: admin@localhost
  • Password: SuperSecret123

...these are also displayed on the login screen 😄

Among other things, this repo demonstrates how one can build back-office custom views for the Block Grid using web components for encapsulation, and reuse these web components when rendering the front-end site. Umbraco 11 does not natively support loading custom scripts as modules, so we have to get a little creative in order to load the web components into the back-office. Have a look at loader.js to see what that looks like.

⚠️ ⚠️ When trying this out, please keep in mind that the block HTML and CSS is written by a back-end developer. It is by no means perfect - for one it doesn't scale very gracefully to smaller screens. ⚠️ ⚠️

Have fun!
