Octahedroid Introduces Composable CMS for Headless Drupal at DrupalCon Portland 2024

During a presentation at DrupalCon Portland 2024, Jesus Manuel Olivas, CEO of Octahedroid, introduced a new approach to structuring content in Headless Drupal. It addresses the ongoing challenges of balancing the needs of developers and site builders with those of content editors and marketers. Olivas detailed the concept of Drupal as a Composable CMS, which focuses on modularity, reusability, content variety, and robust governance.

This innovative system is designed to streamline content workflows without sacrificing the developer experience. It includes three key modules: the Composable Module, which separates content from its presentation to improve adaptability; the Decoupled Preview Iframe, allowing for real-time previews of content as it would appear on the frontend; and the Visual Editor, which offers a sleek, off-canvas editing experience that integrates directly with content.

These tools aim to simplify the content management process in Drupal, making it more flexible and user-friendly for various stakeholders involved in website development and maintenance. For those interested in implementing this system, Octahedroid has made it available on GitHub, encouraging developers and content managers to explore its benefits firsthand. The new approach promises to enhance content delivery capabilities while maintaining high standards for both usability and functionality. Read the full post here.
