Create your site

Step 1 of 2

What your demo site is called. You can change it later.

We email you a link to open your site. That is the only thing we use it for.

How it works.

Three steps, about a minute, and nothing to set up on your machine.

1

Fill in the short form

Name your site and add your email, then choose a starting point.

2

Open the link we email you

We send a link that sets up your site. It is ready in about a minute.

3

Explore the admin

Sign in and try the dashboard: content, media, themes, and modules.

Common questions.

A few things people ask before they try it.

Is it really free?

Yes, completely. There is no account to create, no card, and no paid tier. You only give an email so we can send you the link.

How long does my site last?

Demo sites are cleared each week, so treat it as a sandbox. Anything you change is temporary, which means you can experiment without worrying about breaking it.

Is this the real Orchard Core?

Yes. It is a full Orchard Core site with the same admin you would run yourself, set up with sample content so there is something to look at from the start.

What does the starting point change?

It sets up the site with different sample content and templates, so you can see a few of the things Orchard Core can build. You can change everything once you are in.

How do I build a real site?

When you are ready to run your own, the get started guide walks you through installing Orchard Core and running it locally.
