Drupal is a free Open Source modular framework and Content Management System (CMS). It is extremely scalable, thereby making it ideal for both a simple personal website as well as an industrial strength commercial or institutional web presence. Written in PHP/MySQL, Drupal’s power and flexibility combined with its exceptional design means it is one of the most popular choices for creating a CMS website.
Readers will learn to use the powerful core features offered by the Drupal framework together with the many available contributed modules and themes, thereby helping them to develop web applications within hours. This book starts with building an educational research website, and gradually moves towards building Community, e-commerce, Googlemaps and news aggregating websites.
Drupal 6 Site Blueprints is based on fictitious web site development briefs, as well as practical ways of applying Drupal. Each chapter contains a fictitious brief which helps derive the list of core and contributed modules that are necessary for implementing the project. Aided by the use of extensive screenshots each chapter then progresses into step-by-step instructions that are required for building the web project.
Users interested in building a range of Drupal sites and then applying the many available Drupal plugins and features in different scenarios will find this book beneficial. For more information, please visit: http://www.packtpub.com/drupal-6-site-blueprints/book
