The software is complete enough for internal testing. This is typically done by people other than the software engineers who wrote it, but still within the same organization or community that developed the software.

Here is a more detailed roadmap.

Getting Started

• Clone the repository using the command git clone https://github.com/OrchardCMS/OrchardCore.git and checkout the master branch.

Command line

• Install the latest versions (current) for both Runtime and SDK of .NET Core from this page https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/core
• Call dotnet restore.
• Call dotnet build.
• Next navigate to D:\OrchardCore\src\OrchardCore.Cms.Web or wherever your respective folder is on the command line in Administrator mode.
• Call dotnet run.
• Then open the http://localhost:5000 URL in your browser.

Visual Studio 2017

• Download Visual Studio 2017 (any edition) from https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/
• Open OrchardCore.sln and wait for Visual Studio to restore all Nuget packages
