Drupal Starshot

By james, 24 December, 2024

Welcome back for the final door of the 2024 Advent Calendar. We’ve already covered all 22 tracks of the Starshot initiative, as well as some non-track aspects. For our final door, we are looking at something that is absent from the initial release of Drupal CMS, but is hoped to come to fruition in 2025 and revolutionise website theming.

Once more, we welcome you back to the Drupal Advent Calendar, to see what’s behind door number twenty-two. Today we are welcoming back an old friend, the Gin Admin Theme which was covered all the way back in Door 1 of the 2023 Drupal Advent Calendar.

So why feature it again? Well back then, Gin was something of a rebel, for use on cutting edge Drupal sites, but perhaps a bit too “punk” for respectable production sites.

Welcome back for day 19 of the Drupal Advent Calendar, and today we are welcoming Suzanne Dergacheva and Will Huggins to tell us about the marketing of Drupal CMS.

The Starshot marketing track has been focused on designing the website content and journeys that will promote Drupal CMS, attracting new audiences of marketers, designers and content creators that may never have previously considered Drupal. You can see the first wave of this content.

Welcome back to the Drupal Advent Calendar. For our thirteenth door we are joined by Gareth Alexander, who is leading the Drupal CMS Accessibility Tools track.

When creating content there are so many things to consider: Target Audience, SEO issues like keyword relevance, making content that is actually engaging and relevant, and then there is the accessibility of your content as well.

Welcome back to the ninth day of Drupal Advent Calendar, and behind today’s door we find the Media track of Drupal Starshot. Media Management is an area where Drupal has traditionally not been strong compared to other content management systems, yet it has a lot of very powerful features that Drupal CMS will hopefully refine to make it one of the best media management platforms on the web.
