Drupal made its debut as a bulletin board system in Buytaert in Netherlands. Originally developed by Dries Buytaert, it became an Open Source project in 2001. Drupal evolved over the years to become one of the most popular content management software (CMS) powering websites of some top organizations and government agencies across the globe. Drupal is free, open-source software that can be used to create powerful websites even by people who lack expert technical capabilities and knowledge of designing and developing a website.
Backed by one of the world's most innovative open source communities, Drupal scores high on factors of reliability, performance, top class security and easy content authoring among other important features.
Types of websites that can be easily created using Drupal are:
- E-commerce websites
- Corporate websites
- Blogging websites
- Portals
- Forums
- Social networking sites
Australian Government, Warner Music Group, The Economist, etc are some of the prominent names whose websites are created using this 'out of the box' web content management tool.
However, the high level of flexibility it offers is the core differentiator of Drupal from other CMSs. Written in PHP programming language, Drupal can simply be downloaded, installed and run. It offers tools that make it possible to build well-structured, dynamic and responsive websites.
