Why Drupal?
Download as PPTX, PDF0 likes342 views
Drupal is a content management framework with a large community and features such as in-built CRUD operations, views for data presentation, and extensive third-party integrations. The key benefits of Drupal 8 include the integration of Symfony2 and improved configuration management, although it lacks some components present in its core. Notable defects include issues with deployment, a flexible but slow database structure, and inconsistent caching.
