Install Sitefinity CMS

Depending on how you want to use Sitefinity there are the following installation paths: 

• Use Sitefinity CMS with .NET Core Renderer only

  RECOMMENDATION: For new projects, we recommend installing Sitefinity CMS in .NET Core mode and create your project, based on the .NET Core framework.
  

  In this case, you install Sitefinity CMS with a lighter NuGet package that runs only .NET Core pages and then connect it with the .NET Core Renderer.
  
• Use Sitefinity in a hybrid mode with .NET Core Renderer and MVC pages. 

  RECOMMENDATION: We recommend using this mode to migrate MVC to .NET Core pages.

  You install Sitefinity CMS with the full NuGet package, and then connect it with the .NET Core Renderer 
• Use Sitefinity with MVC pages only 
  You install Sitefinity CMS with the full NuGet package, without installing and setting up a .NET Core Renderer. In this mode you can also use Sitefinity CMS Project Manager, instead of a NuGet package.

  RECOMMENDATION: We recommend installing Sitefinity CMS using the NuGet package. 

  Use the Project Manager to install Sitefinity CMS for evaluation purposes only. For more information, see Create projects with the Project Manager.
