This post describes how I implemented a data type converter for Converge, allowing a different data type to be used in the destination site, when compared to the original source site.
I think that the easiest way to explain what Converge does is to see it in action. Here I will explain how I migrated a simple Umbraco V7 site to Umbraco V8.
Before upgrading my current site to use Umbraco 8, I decided to revisit my experiences of moving sites from version 6 to version 7. When doing that I dabbled with the idea of starting with a brand new site and migrating the content separately. Here I take a look at applying that method to version 8 and from that my first Umbraco Package was born.
