March User Group:: An in depth view of Drupal

The Drupal CMS (PHP, GPL) allows you to assemble powerful web sites instead of writing them from scratch. It supports custom inter-related data types, configurable views and summaries of all content, user-generated content, search, user accounts, roles, media handling, and much more. Thousands of contributed modules provide all kinds of functionality.Eventually, though, many sites need custom functionality. Join Barry Jaspan, Principal Engineer at Acquia, Inc., for a deep introduction to Drupal development, including:


  • Drupal hooks
  • Custom modules
  • Leveraging existing modules and APIs
  • What's new in Drupal 6
  • Becoming a professional Drupal consultant/site developer

The worldwide Drupal conference will be here in Boston, March 3rd-6th2008! Attend this talk then come to DrupalCon to learn even more. See http://boston2008.dru... for full details.
