What is Drupal

* '''Drupal''' is a free and open source''' Content Management System '''(CMS).

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 6:

'''CMS '''in the old days

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| What is a '''CMS'''?

* It is not like the old days where we have several html files uploaded on a server.
* In the traditional way, each webpage has its own html file.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 7:

What is '''CMS'''

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| * Now it is very different.

* Each page is constructed using various components.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 8:

What is '''CMS'''

*

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| * Each of the component can come from different places.
* These components are assembled on the fly, using some programming logic.
* So depending on where you are viewing, say a desktop or a mobile, it could be different.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 9:

What is '''CMS '''

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| * It can also change depending on who is viewing it from where.
* You may be a student viewing it from India,

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 10:

What is '''CMS '''

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| * Or a customer buying something from Singapore.
* Each of you could see a different page.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 11:

What is '''CMS '''

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| * '''CMS''' is the program behind this presentation logic.
* It uses various programming functionalities such as '''PHP, Ajax, Javascript,''' etc.
* All '''CMS''' usually use a database to store information content without any formatting.
* The formatting of content is done separately.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 12:

What is '''CMS '''

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| * '''CMS''' makes even non-technical users to manage a website easily.

* Anybody can download and change it.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 14:

Drupal Community
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| * Since making it opensource, several thousands of people have helped in modifying the code.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 15:

Drupal Community

| style="border-top:1pt solid #000000;border-bottom:0.75pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| * They then give it back to the community with small improvements.
* '''Drupal''' community is one of the largest and closely knit open source community.
* This community has developers, site-builders, volunteers, who make '''Drupal''' what it is today.
* It is said that in '''Drupal '''you '''“Come for the code, stay for the community”'''
* May be you will stick to the community for the same reason.

|-
| style="border-top:1pt solid #000000;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"|
| style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Next let me list out the top 10 features of '''Drupal'''.

Number 1:

'''Drupal '''is free and completely open source.

Anybody can download the source code and modify it.

Even if you’re a developer, '''Drupal '''is very useful.

|-
| style="border-top:1pt solid #000000;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"|
| style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Number 2:

'''Drupal''' is flexible.

'''Drupal''' is one of the most adaptive systems available today.

'''Drupal''' works well with sophisticated websites that require many different custom data structures

Developers use it as both '''CMS''' and as a broader web development platform.

|-
| style="border-top:1pt solid #000000;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"|
| style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Number 3:

'''Drupal''' is mobile-ready.

We can view and administer every page on our '''Drupal''' site, from any mobile device we choose.

|-
| style="border-top:1pt solid #000000;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"|
| style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Number 4:

'''Drupal''' is fantastic for big projects.

From the '''whitehouse.gov''' to '''weather.com '''and '''Dallas Cowboys, Drupal''' can handle any project.

'''Drupal''' shines with more complex websites.

It’s one of the best solutions for people who want to build a feature rich website.

And it’s also highly suitable for large enterprises

|-
| style="border-top:1pt solid #000000;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"|
| style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Number 5:

'''Drupal''' is friendly, social and searchable.

'''Drupal''' helps people find my site and my content.

Also, '''Drupal''' allows site editors to add tags, descriptions, keywords and human-friendly '''URLs'''.

|-
| style="border-top:1pt solid #000000;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"|
| style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Number 6:

'''Drupal''' is safe and secure.

'''Drupal''' keeps our site safe with

* regular security updates,
* hash passwords,
* session IDs that change when permissions change,
* text format permissions restricting user input
* and a lot more.

'''Drupal''' takes security very seriously.

|-
| style="border-top:1pt solid #000000;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"|
| style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Number 7:

We can extend our '''Drupal''' site by using thousands of '''Modules''' that add features to the '''Drupal''' site.

Think of any feature and somebody has mostly built a '''Module''' and made it available free.

We can have multiple '''Themes''' or versions of a '''Theme''' on the same site.

And yet, have complete control over the visual presentation of your website data.

|-
| style="border-top:1pt solid #000000;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"|

Local events are called '''Drupal''' camps.

And every year there are major '''DrupalCons''' all around the world.

There are very active '''Forums, User Groups''' and '''IRC chats''' dedicated to '''Drupal''' support.
