Drupal 8 Site Building

The Crash Course

Presented by Larry Garfield / Ken Rickard

Goals

Students will be able to...

  • Model content in abstract from in Drupal
  • Display content in different ways
  • Query for content
  • Control the display of content on the site
  • Control the layout of a site

Newsflash

Content Management is content-centric

That means it's not design-centric

The design should be content-centric, too
