Introduction of Drupal 9<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Drupal 9 is Here \u2013 Almost! 5 years after version 8, Drupal launches its last update and is now in version 9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This version change brings more features than the previous ones and promises to seduce its users!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to its new features and the improvement of its user experience, Drupal will clearly impact the future of the web.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s take a look at the various changes that version 9 will bring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Rejuvenation of the Platform<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Clearly, this update brings new features and an improved user experience. Drupal 9 has secure and longer updates than previous ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A guarantee of quality and confidence for this new version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The developers mainly cleaned up the code, refreshed the libraries in use, and removed the features marked as obsolete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The removal of the code inherited from the previous version is also a considerable advantage in making Drupal more attractive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This version 9 now uses the Symfony PHP framework in version 4.4 and the Twig template language in version 2, one more upgrade compared to previous versions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The minimum PHP version<\/strong><\/a> required will be 7.2 or even 7.3, which will also have a significant influence on its performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new layout editor, and improved post flow administration are also major changes, making Drupal easier to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continuous Development and Updating<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since Drupal version 8, the continuous development process is based on current PHP standards and aims to ensure long-term planning security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to this schedule, every 6 months, a new fully backward compatible minor version will be released and will bring new features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New tools are constantly being added, keeping Drupal on the cutting edge of technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Powered by its Community<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Drupal is an open-source project that draws on the experience of tens of thousands of developers around the world and has earned a reputation for security, performance, accessibility, and scalability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The obvious advantage of Drupal has always been its ability to work with data that allows you to create something once and use it anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flexible Customization and Ease of Use<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to custom templates, there is no risk that you have to change all the business processes when changing the content management system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, Drupal 9 uses the PHP Twig template engine as the default template system, allowing for simple syntax. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The system compiles templates in PHP in the background, ensuring smooth performance, which is absolutely crucial for one of the most widely used CMS in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
