WebMatrix (Beta) is the free tool from Microsoft that makes it easy to build websites and web applications, then publish them on the internet with just a couple of clicks of the mouse. In WebMatrix, you can start from scratch using ASP.NET Web Pages or PHP, or you can download a fully functioning web app through tools such as Umbraco, WordPress, or Drupal before tweaking the app and deploying it to a low-cost hosting provider. Helpers are an important part of website development with ASP.NET Web Pages, making complicated web development tasks much easier by providing simple-to-use APIs. Jim takes us through some of his favorite Helpers and shows off the new WishList template, which will ship in the next preview of WebMatrix.James' Top Links: Learn more about WebMatrix at a free Web Camp Training event near you!

WebMatrix looks great! That would be cool if it would support customizable project templates. Imagine a scenario where you create a new project based on some template, it will ask you which Dependency Injection library should be used, which ORM to use Entity Framework / NHibernate, should it support membership, profiles, roles.. if so, which types of logins are allowed - username/pass, live id, open id, should it support plugins based on MEF etc. BTW, talking about MEF, that would be good to have a project sample similar to your wish list which emphasizes a scenario with using MEF powered plugins.

Thanks for your input, we'll definitely consider that for future templates.  The target audience for Wishlist is more of a beginner crowd.  For sure adding OpenId support is something we're looking into, look for this in a future Codeplex update Smiley
