    Hi

    I've been an asp.net developer for a number of years (and I have pretty strong sql server skills).

    I want to start investigating large scale sharepoint portal development.
    Anyone know of any decent starter kits to tear apart (apart from the MS SDK).

    I'm interested in large scale sharepoint portals where sharepoint is used as the platform for development but the portals are very custom.

    e.g.
    http://www.migros.ch/DE/home/Seiten/Home.aspx
    http://beta.hedkandi.com/Pages/default.aspx

    A sharepoint development environment is horrible. No click & drag UI so all webparts need to be programmatically created at run time.

    The recommended approach is to develop in VS2005/2008 on Windows Server 2003 running Sharepoint 2007. You can also approach this using a virtual machine.

    Once you have that setup, you can use the extensions kit V1.1 available on the M$ website. That comes with templates for developing the various solutions/webparts within the Sharepoint platform.

    In terms of producing portals such as the links you provided. That shouldn't be that difficult as it's pretty easy to imprint your own brand using masterpages & themes. The customisation you mention can be easily achieved using web parts built on top of the ASP.net framework.
