Drupal for Designers — A non-technical intro to the Drupal world

SESSION OVERVIEW

This will be a lecture-style introduction to the world of Drupal. It is specifically aimed to Designers who heard about Drupal before (or even designed for a Drupal website), but who don’t know what the buzz is all about.

AGENDA

• A short history of Drupal
• Why do coders use Drupal?
• High Profile Drupal sites
• Drupal terminology at a glance
• The ecosphere
• The Drupal VIPs

GOAL

The main goal is to familiarize Designers and less technically interested people with the world of Drupal. You won’t get to know how to start building a site, but rather get a feeling as to how things work in the Drupal ecosphere.

PREREQUISITES

None.
