You can build great websites with Drupal.
Our names are Steve Burge and Cindy McCourt, and were Drupal trainers.
During hundreds of Drupal classes in many cities and countries, weve met lots of different types of Drupal learners:
- Drupal learners come from many different backgrounds. They are accountants, florists, photographers, secretaries, factory workers, stay-at-home parents, and people from all walks of life.
- Drupal learners dont need to know anything about websites. Some Drupal learners are professional web designers, but many others have never built a site before and dont know any website code or jargon.
- Drupal learners dont need any experience. Weve trained people who went to work the previous week and found their boss saying, Surprise! Youre running our Drupal site! They often still wore their look of surprise.
- Drupal learners are of all ages. Weve taught 15-year old students skipping class all the way up to retirees in their 80s.
If any of those descriptions sound like you, youve picked up the right book.
Using plain English and straightforward instructions, this book will help teach you how to build great websites using Drupal.
You dont learn to ride a bicycle by reading a book: You learn by actually riding.
You dont learn to drive a car by reading a book: You learn by actually driving.
A book can help and give some advice, but without actually riding a bike or driving a car, youll never really learn. The same is true with Drupal.
So, throughout every chapter of this book, youre going to be asked to work with Drupal.
After you master the techniques in this book, you can build your own websites for companies, charities, schools, sports, or whatever else you need.
However, this book uses a specific example site. Asking all the readers of this book to build the same site makes it easy for us to give you specific instructions, explanations, and screenshots.
Its not essential that you follow every task provided, but by following the flow of each chapter you can get a good understanding of all the key Drupal concepts.
The example were going to use is a website about Drupal. Youre going to create a site with information about Drupal. The project is called Drupalville. Thats going to be the project you use to see how to build and run a Drupal site.
You can also find lots of information, including detailed instructions, updates, and corrections for each chapter at http://ostraining.com/books/d8e.
This book also uses a specific process. Drupal is incredibly flexible and provides you with many options. That is both a strength and a weakness of Drupal. To make things as clear as possible for beginners, were going to use a specific workflow for building the Drupalville website:
Big books are no fun. Theyre expensive to buy, heavy to carry, and often written in long, complicated sentences, paragraphs, and chapters that go on and on while the text grows and the words grow longer and more obscure as the author tries to show their verbosity and vocabulary, examining the thesaurus for words that describe, narrate, impress, and fill up space but never quite get to the point so that you end up going back to the beginning of the long confusing text and try to reread, but then you start wondering whats for dinner or whats on TV instead.
Yes, this book will also include some bad jokes.
This book is as small as possible because it leaves things out.
Youre going to read that time and time again, but its worth repeating: This book will leave things out.
You will focus on only the most important parts of Drupal so that you can understand them as easily as possible.
This book is not comprehensive. It does not contain everything you could know about Drupal. It contains only what a Drupal beginner needs to know.
You do not need to know any HTML and CSS to use this book. That is a deliberate decision because we want to make this book accessible to ordinary people. We believe you dont have to be a developer to use Drupal.
However, that will disappoint some of you because this book does not discuss designing themes or building modules. If you do know CSS and PHP and want to dive into more advanced topics, theres a lot of advanced training at https://ostraining.com/classes/drupal-8.
Drupal changes regularly, and so do the extra features and designs that you add on to it.
Everything in this book is correct at the time of writing. However, its possible that some of the instructions and screen shots may become out-of-date.
Be patient with any changes you find. We will list changes at http://ostraining.com/books/d8e. Please feel free to visit that site, search for updates, and contact us if you find any we havent listed.
Now that you know a little bit about Drupal, lets talk a little about this book, Drupal 8 Explained.
You need only two things to follow along with this book:
- A computer with an Internet connection
- A hosting account or computer where you can install Drupal
However, before you start, you probably need to know something about Drupal. Turn to Chapter 1 and lets get started!
