When you download and install Drupal, you get so much functionality available out-of-the-box.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
* Content creation and editing capabilities with a flexible content type
|
|
* A taxonomy system for categorising content.
|
|
* Tools for managing editorial workflows.
|
|
* User registration and authentication.
|
|
* A role-based permission system.
|
|
* Support for creating multilingual websites with translation tools.
|
|
* Caching mechanisms to optimise performance.
|
|
* Scalability features for handling high-traffic websites.
|
|
* Built-in search functionality.
|
|
* Robust security features, including input validation and output filtering.
|
|
* RESTful web services for building web applications and mobile apps.
|
|
* A flexible page and layout builder.
|
|
|
|
There are over 50,000 contributed modules on Drupal.org that you can download to add functionality like eCommerce, analytics, social media integrations, quizzes, webforms and surveys.
|
|
|
|
You can add specific functionality by writing your own modules, and customise a project by creating a theme.
|
|
|
|
It's a great choice for a new web project.
