Description

Type:

Workshop

Drupal is a powerful, open-source content management system (CMS) that provides a flexible platform for websites and web-based research projects. This workshop will cover the basics of how Drupal works, covering essential site building topics such as fields, content types, users, menus, blocks taxonomies, and views. The material covered in the workshop can be applied to administrative (e.g. departmental, organizational, etc.) websites as well as research use cases.

No programming experience is required, and no code will be written as part of this workshop— we will be working exclusively with “modules” that have already been built, and can be configured through a user interface.
