CMS drops support for WebForms

This is an early heads up that CMS 11.x will be the last generation of CMS with support for building templates on ASP.NET WebForms. When the ASP.NET MVC support was launched with Episerver 7 back in 2012 it quickly became the technology of choice for building modern web sites, some of our newer modules since such as Forms only supports MVC and Commerce dropped support for WebForms earlier this year. Today all new sites are either built on ASP.NET MVC or as a SPA.

For sites built on WebForms we will continue to support them on the CMS 11.x generation. There will be no breaking change release of CMS this year.
