Hello,
I'm looking to get a rough overview of the development activities typically involved in creating a fairly large store with some external systems integration on MS Commerce Server and how it differs from standard asp.net development
1) Do you typically start from scratch or start from the "starter site"
2) Do you typically create custom templates which access the store items to display through .net objects or do you need to use provided templateable CS webcontrols
3) Are templates and code artifacts for the store site (aspx's etc.) xcopy-deployed to the different environments (test/stage/prod)? Or is it done like in Sharepoint with deployment packaging
Thanks
