Decoupled (Headless) Drupal has been gaining traction in recent years, offering flexibility by separating the presentation layer from the backend of the content management system. GraphQL integration is another significant trend, improving data query efficiency in Drupal development. Drupal developers increasingly utilize AI and ML technologies to create smarter and personalized websites.
Web accessibility is now a top priority, with Accessibility-First Development focusing on creating inclusive web experiences for all users. Finally, Progressive Web Applications (PWAs) offer seamless user experiences, combining website and native mobile app features. Automated testing and DevOps practices are becoming essential for efficient and reliable Drupal development.
In summary, Drupal's future lies in innovation and enhancing user experiences through trends like decoupled architecture, GraphQL, AI and ML integration, accessibility-first development, PWAs, and automated testing with DevOps. These trends will help Drupal users stay competitive and meet evolving customer expectations.
