Code and Libraries

• Music4dance.net is built with asp.net mvc core using vue.js, Twitter Bootstrap and Bootstrap Vue for the presentation layer, SQL Azure and Entity Framework for the database.
• NOTE: We're currently migrating from vue.js 2.0 to vue.js 3.0 and bootstrap-vue to bootstrap-vue-next. The new pages should look very close to the old ones, but can be readily identified by the fact that the drop-down menus are rendered white text on a black background. We would appreciate your help as we roll the changes out. Please report any bugs you find and we'll do our best to keep the site stable.
• We're still using jQuery for form validation in the account pages, but hope to find an alternative as part of the general migration progress.
• The site uses Azure Cognitive Search for managing and searching the core music database.
• The site is hosted on Microsoft Azure.
• The cookie consent control was created by silktide insites
• The browser update notification is supplied by browser-update.org
