DrupalX Ported to Contentful in SyncNext Project, Now Open for Testing

Staff Reporter

Jay Callicott has completed the initial port of DrupalX to Contentful, marking a major step in aligning DrupalX with headless content management workflows. The port integrates DrupalX’s content model and components into Contentful and is now open for testing. A demo video has been released to walk through the integration in detail.

The project, hosted on GitHub under the name SyncNext, is built with Next.js 15 and uses Contentful as its CMS. It features a dynamic content model that avoids hardcoded mappings, allowing automatic content type detection and efficient API usage. SyncNext also supports Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR), rich text rendering, custom routing, and built-in content validation.

Enterprise-grade features include intelligent caching layers, automated retry logic for network issues, and a preview mode that enables draft content review. The system is designed with performance monitoring, full TypeScript support, and AI-enhanced development workflows.

Jay has invited the community to test the integration and share feedback to improve the system further. The demo and repository are available publicly, and contributions are welcome through GitHub.
