Drupal is a free and open source content management system (CMS) written in PHP and distributed under the GNU General Public License. Originally written by Dries Buytaert (who still continues to lead the Drupal project), Drupal turned open-source in 2001 and since then has blossomed into a powerful and friendly content organizer with the contribution of countless developers world-wide to the Drupal core itself as well as various add-on extensions to Drupal (in the form of modules, themes, language kits and documentation etc).

Thousands of websites worldwide rely on Drupal including the official website of White House, and our own Spoken Tutorials website.

Drupal allows novice web authors to quickly publish their website without any knowledge of writing code or designing pages, while still giving advanced developers an extensive API to hook into the Drupal core and enhance it to any desired objective. Drupal runs on any computing platform that supports both a web server capable of running PHP 4.4.0+ (including Apache, IIS, Lighttpd, and nginx) and a database (such as MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite) to store content and settings.

This set of tutorials will cover features and usage of Drupal version 7.x. Please see the associated text box of individual spoken tutorials on the website to decide the versions of Drupal and OS to which it is applicable.

The Spoken Tutorial Effort for Drupal is being contributed by Leena Mulye from IT for Change, Bangalore (India) [www.itforchange.net] and Rahul Singla from Imbibe Technologies (P) Ltd., Karnal (India) [www.rahulsingla.com]. Other contributors who helped in the creation of the scripts are ............
