Staff Reporter

Marios Ioannidis has cross-posted a blog post that appeared on Orion Web titled "Drupal 11 All the Way!" in LinkedIn Pulse. The post discusses the significant improvements in Drupal 11, released on August 2, 2024. This version, developed by 1,858 contributors from 590 organizations, enhances editing, content rendering, and component-based development.

Key features include a revamped navigation system, a refreshed admin toolbar, and the experimental Drupal Recipes for quick functionality installation. Single-directory components improve front-end development, while other enhancements include better page performance, accessibility, decoupled menus, and sophisticated content management. Upgrading involves checking system requirements, updating to the latest Drupal 10.x version, handling deprecated modules, and using the Upgrade Status module for readiness.
