See how easily you can integrate the ButterCMS Pages API with your ASP.NET app.
Seamless ASP.NET components
Empower your marketing team with dynamic landing pages that align perfectly with your ASP.NET components.
Components are the essential building blocks of any ASP.NET app, and ButterCMS handles them with ease.
Our drag and drop interface makes it simple to structure your content to match existing ASP.NET components and to create new reusable components whenever you need them.
One ASP.NET CMS with everything you need
There’s a reason so many developers are choosing a headless ASP.NET CMS. It’s easy to set up, offers flexible, customizable content modeling, and gives you access to our full ASP.NET API.
First you would set up a new Customer Case Study page type in Butter and create a page. With your page defined, the ButterCMS API will return it in JSON format like this:
{
"data": {
"slug": "acme-co",
"fields": {
"facebook_open_graph_title": "Acme Co loves ButterCMS",
"seo_title": "Acme Co Customer Case Study",
"headline": "Acme Co saved 200% on Anvil costs with ButterCMS",
"testimonial": "<p>We've been able to make anvils faster than ever before! - <em>Chief Anvil Maker</em></p>\r\n<p><img src=\"https://cdn.buttercms.com/NiA3IIP3Ssurz5eNJ15a\" alt=\"\" caption=\"false\" width=\"249\" height=\"249\" /></p>",
"customer_logo": "https://cdn.buttercms.com/c8oSTGcwQDC5I58km5WV",
}
}
}
To create these pages in our app, we create a route that fetches content for the page by using a URL slug parameter. This is how the Controllers/CaseStudyController.cs file might look:
using System.Threading.Tasks; using System.Web.Mvc; using ButterCMS; using Newtonsoft.Json;
namespace ButterCmsExample.Controllers { public class CaseStudyController : Controller { private ButterCMSClient Client;
private static string _apiToken = "";
public CaseStudyController() { Client = new ButterCMSClient(_apiToken); }
ButterCMS is an API-based headless CMS. We're a hosted service and we maintain all the infrastructure. We play nicely with an expanding list of leading technologies, including:
No database required! We're a SaaS CMS or CaaS. You simply call our Content API from your app. We host and maintain all of the CMS infrastructure.
Do you host my templates?
Unlike CMSs you might be used to, we don't control or host any of your templates. The design of your app (HTML + CSS) lives in your application along side the rest of your app. Your application calls our Content API and we return your content in JSON format. You can then render this content in any way you'd like.
Can I import my content?
Yep. To import existing content from another platform, simply send us an email.
How do you compare to WordPress?
In short, we offer all the same easy-to-use editing capabilities of WordPress but are significantly easier for developers to setup and maintain. This means you spend less time working on your CMS and more time focusing on things important to your business.
Can I self host Butter?
No, we're a SaaS CMS or CaaS. You simply call our Content API from your app. We host and maintain all of the CMS infrastructure.
