Code 'n' Character Explores Whether Drupal CMS is Worth the Hype
Bevan Wishart, in his recent episode of the 'Code 'n' Character' podcast, featured Ivan Zugec to discuss the much-anticipated Starshot Initiative by Drupal, aiming to transform Drupal into a more user-friendly platform. Titled "Can Drupal’s Starshot Initiative Really Deliver on the Hype?" the episode dives into Drupal's strategic efforts to compete directly with popular CMS platforms like WordPress.
Historically regarded as developer-centric, Drupal's new initiative focuses on accessibility for marketers and site builders, incorporating features such as "recipes" to simplify site setups, which potentially reduces the need for advanced coding skills. Bevan and Ivan examine whether this shift can effectively rebrand Drupal and position it as a viable alternative to WordPress in the mainstream CMS terrain. They address both the opportunities and skepticism surrounding the initiative, weighing Drupal’s potential to bridge the gap between developers and content creators. The episode invites web developers, digital marketers, and content creators to assess Drupal's future and question if its promises under the Starshot Initiative will materialize into tangible benefits.
