=====Welcome to ThinkGeo Wiki=====

<div msgbox>
**Note:** The page was created before Map Suite 12. Map Suite 12.0 support both .NET Core and .NET framework as well as had a few minor breaks in compatibility. The majority of previously built code should work without modification assuming the new namespaces are added. For guidance on upgrading your existing code, please check out [[thinkgeo_12_upgrade_guide|ThinkGeo 12 Upgrade Guide]].</div>

ThinkGeo Wiki is the central and official source of documentation, sample code and learning material for ThinkGeo users.  It contains resources such as API reference, Quickstart Guides, sample projects with source code, change logs for each version, and more.

=====ThinkGeo Cloud=====
ThinkGeo Cloud is a set of cloud-hosted RESTful APIs, which have been designed to optimize your productivity in the world of mapping by taking away the complicated deployments, data warehousing and IT concerns that you would normally encounter. It can be consumed from a web page, as well as Desktop applications or Mobile Apps on a different platform.
