Drupal
Drupal is a free, open-source content management system (CMS) written in PHP, used to build and manage websites, applications, and digital experiences. It provides a modular framework with extensive APIs, themes, and modules for creating customizable, scalable, and secure web solutions, ranging from personal blogs to enterprise-level platforms. Drupal emphasizes flexibility, accessibility, and community-driven development, making it a popular choice for complex, content-heavy sites.
Developers should learn Drupal when building large-scale, content-driven websites that require robust user management, multilingual support, and high customizability, such as government portals, educational institutions, or corporate intranets. It is particularly useful for projects needing strong security features, integration with third-party systems, and a structured content architecture, as its modular design allows for tailored solutions without extensive coding from scratch.
