We have taken our soon to be released ASPX template suite and generated a site against the Microsoft SQL Northwind database. Nothing you will see on this site was hand coded (except for the row of buttons at the top and the URL link at the bottom - both on our master page). The ASP.NET templates are pretty sophisticated and are style sheet driven so please don't get hung up on the color scheme. We realize you probably wouldn't use these pages as your actual website but the ASP.NET pages do provide a nice admin system that sys-admins can use to administer your database and that developers can use during development. They also act as a very nice reference on how to use EntitySpaces in an ASP.NET application.

The EntitySpaces ASP.NET templates support master pages (optional), use the new Multiview/View construct and the GridView, allow for sorting on the header columns, paging, sub grids, editing, searching, and more. We're only a matter of days until they are released at which point all customers will have access to the templates in the download area. The EntitySpaces ASP.NET templates will not be included in the trial version of EntitySpaces. The documentation and demo site of course will be open to everyone.
