Introducing Drupal Starshot: Enhancing Accessibility and Competitiveness
Drupal's project lead Dries Buytaert recently announced a new direction for the CMS, Drupal Starshot, at DrupalCon Portland 2024, aimed at enhancing user-friendliness out of the box. This initiative seeks to bridge the gap between enterprise users and smaller businesses with fewer technical resources by integrating advanced AI capabilities and offering prepackaged site-building recipes. The Drupal Starshot will include a revamped marketing strategy to promote this version over the traditional Drupal Core, with the first official release expected by the end of this year. Tim Butara from Agiledrop authored the article detailing these changes, highlighting the shift towards making Drupal more accessible and competitive in the CMS market against both proprietary and open-source platforms.
