Drupal – an open source content management system that can build any kind of amazing websites, and can power a whole lot of applications. Right from the maintenance of personal blogs to managing complicated enterprise applications, Drupal can build any site that one can imagine with thousands of add-on designs and modules. But what is there in its coming edition of Drupal 8 that is exciting for everyone. Have a look.
Drupal 8 is actually expected to offer an entire new set of standards along with the ease of use, and is also stacked with numerous ways and approaches to customize and organize the content to the web. Drupal 8 can easily customize pages, listings, data structures, and can also deploy the new capabilities that can build API’s, become accustomed to the multilingual needs, and displays data on the mobile devices. Considering everybody in mind, Drupal 8 has something or the other thing for everyone in its kitty, which is quite a gratifying factor towards the modern, Object Oriented Programming (OOP) approach, which has loaded Drupal 8 with a more powerful content editing and management tool, and easier migration processes relatively better than the older versions.
Furthermore, Drupal has also improved the way it is being loaded on JavaScript.
No software can remain static forever. They need regeneration and replenishment to keep up with the user’s demands and the emergent hardware capabilities. However, there is a widespread adoption of Drupal all around the globe, but there is consistent criticism as well because of it not being as easy as compared to the other website building options, like WordPress. The newer and the better Drupal 8 version is fundamentally designed to address such concerns. The upgrade in Drupal has made it more competitive with other CMS solutions.
Drupal 8 is powered with “Twig”, which is a secure, fast and flexible template engine for PHP. Twig makes the functionality of Drupal easier, and also helps in making the designing part beautiful. By means of Twig, templates are now written in a much easier-to-understand syntax that has simplified things and has also brought greater security.
HTML5 plays a vital role in making the website more functional and well-attuned with the mobile devices. Drupal 8 has also been updated with this standard, which makes it a more proper tool for e-mail, date, and phone on mobile.
Not just friendly, but the entire DNA properties of Drupal are filled with “mobile”. All the built-in themes of Drupal 8 are responsive, the tables contract in a proper manner, and the new admin toolbar is also in conjunction with the mobile.
There are endless possibilities in Drupal 8 of building mobile apps as a data source, exposing content as XML or JSON, authenticating a client with HTTP authentication, and many such more services. Drupal 8 also put into practice state-of-the-art Hypertext Application Language (HAL).
Drupal 8 offers a file system-based configuration management system that keeps record of all the important details. The file system-based configuration management system in Drupal 8 makes it simple to transport configured changes from development to production such as content types.
These advanced and highly developed changes with all new features and attributes will soon be the part of mobile and web development world.
