I am relatively new to DNN.
I am using DNN 5.  I have found some good tutorials on creating skins but not on creating containers for DNN 5
I am comfortable creating skins,  modules, etc.  But I want to enhance my skins and pages using containers.
Is there a source for learning how to create containers for DNN 5?

creating containers is not much different from creating skins, most skinning tutorials cover both and the skinning guide (available from resources > Project and technical Documentation in menu above lists all the available tokens and skin objects.

Sebastian,
Thank you for the reply. I have had a hard time finding skinning tutorials specific to ver 5 that include info on using containers.
From what I have been able to dig out, there is a significant difference in ver 5 as far as packaging, use of xml files, etc.
I will try the documentation you referenced although good tutorials with examples usually answer lot of questions.
Thanks again,
