Evolving Web's blog post by Simon Morvan explains why Drupal 10, along with its version 10.1 release, is an appealing alternative for website developers and administrators. Highlighting Drupal's long-standing reputation for impressive performance, the piece underscores the platform's now even speedier loading times.

Faster-loading websites tend to attract more traffic and achieve better conversion rates.

It's noteworthy that Drupal's Core Web Vitals (CWV) score has soared to 51.4%, surpassing competitors like Joomla and WordPress. This remarkable speed enhancement is made possible through techniques like lazy loading, Big Pipe for custom placeholder content, and on-the-fly JavaScript minification, contributing to a smoother user experience.

Additionally, the blog post sheds light on Drupal's significant advancements in global-readiness. The platform simplifies translation management and enhances language detection.

By dropping support for Internet Explorer, Drupal has embraced more contemporary development techniques. It introduces modern features such as the Olivero front-end theme, Claro admin theme, views responsive grids, and Single Directory Components (SDCs) tailored for front-end developers. These features align Drupal 10 with modern web development practices.

Furthermore, the post emphasizes Drupal's commitment to intuitive design, inclusivity, easy content creation with CKEditor 5, advanced security, and continuous innovation. These attributes reflect Drupal's dedication to being a robust and forward-looking platform.

With minor releases every six months and compatibility with the latest technologies, Drupal 10, including PHP 8.1 and Symfony 6.2, promises a promising future for web development and content management. The contributions from the Drupal community, including the introduction of Project Browser and innovative modules, further empower users to create and customize websites with ease.
