  3. Drupal 8: The 1st product of the PHP-FIG era Inspiriert

    von der PHP-FIG Initiative hat die Drupal Community in den letzten fünf Jahren eine neue Version entwickelt - mit integrierten Symfony Komponenten und weiteren Open Source Tools. Drupal 8 kann mit Daten umgehen wie keine andere Version zuvor. Sie ist extrem einfach in größere Anwendungen zu integrieren und ist damit hervorragend für den Einsatz in größeren Applikationen geeignet. Und sie ist jetzt bereit, in euren Builds zum Einsatz zu kommen.
