Templating

Information on configuring Templates (Views) and Partials (Partial Views)

Templating in Umbraco consists of 3 larger concepts, namely Templates (Views) and Partials (Partial Views).

• Templates are used for the HTML layout of your pages.

• Partials can be included in your templates for shared functionality across different page templates.

Templating technology

Umbraco uses ASP.Net MVC Views for implementing templates.

The WebForms (masterpages) and Dynamic Razor approaches to templating are still available in Umbraco version 7 but have been removed in Umbraco version 8.
