A .NET open source content management system and web application development framework. Also goes by the names DotNetNuke, and DNN Platform and Evoq (the Commercial Product built upon DNN Platform).

The DNN (DotNetNuke) Platform is a CMS originally based on a Microsoft .NET example web application called IBuySpy portal, it was first released under the moniker IBuySpy Workshop. It is an open-source project (MIT license) and part of the .NET Foundation. There are also commercial solutions built by DNN Software, including Evoq Content. Overall, the platform runs over 700,000 known production websites.

Originally DNN was written in VB.NET. With version 6 of DNN, a switch was made to C# as the development language for the core platform. The name changed from DotNetNuke to DNN Platform in 2013 (with the commercial solutions changing from Professional Edition and DNN Social to the Evoq Suite of solutions).
