The Umbraco Awards 2023 are just around the corner. The jury has carefully been evaluating all of your submissions and chosen the nominees for each category. The quality of the submissions is absolutely top-shelf, showcasing the amazing skills of the people who created the packages and solutions that were submitted.

Package Hall of Fame

Unlike the Package Awards of previous years where we had multiple winning packages (check out the winners of2021 and 2022), this year we will announce a single winner and runner-up.

To give established, award-winning packages an honorary place within the Package Award category and make room for new packages to be nominated, we’ve introduced the Package Hall of Fame. Being included can be considered a huge accomplishment, as it indicates being a huge asset to the Umbraco package ecosystem and shows a consistent dedication to maintaining a high-quality package.

The 2023 Package Hall of Fame will include:

Contentment by Lee Kelleher
uSkinned Site Builder by uSkinned (Paul Daly, Marc Love)
uSync by Kevin Jump

A big H5YR! and congratulations on being the first packages in the Hall of Fame!
