Getting Off on the Right Foot with Drupal at Florida DrupalCamp 2025

Staff Reporter

The session "Off On the Right Foot with Drupal" at Florida DrupalCamp 2025 will provide attendees with essential insights into launching a successful Drupal website. It will be held on Saturday, February 22, 2025, from 9:45 to 10:30 EST. James Candan, a Web Solutions Architect at ITCON Services and Founder & Lead Instructor at Stack Elevate, will lead the session.

Candan’s session focuses on avoiding common pitfalls in early Drupal projects by establishing a strong foundation for efficiency and scalability. Key topics include project initiation, local and remote development environments, and production hosting options. Attendees will also explore content structure theory and theme selection to build functional and visually appealing sites.

Ideal for those who have completed beginner training, the session also introduces resources for non-developers to build a site without custom coding.

By applying Candan’s insights, participants can confidently launch a well-structured Drupal site while minimizing the risk of future rebuilds. This session is a must-attend for anyone starting their Drupal journey.
