This time around, Drupal folk are talking up tooling for “the post-browser era”, which apparently means lots of people now read stuff on devices
Dries Buytaert, creator and project lead of Drupal and also CTO at Drupal-wrangling firm Acquia reckons the new edition “… provides a modern development framework, a reimagined user experience, and tools that empower builders to create digital experiences that are multilingual, mobile and highly personalized.”
Responsive interfaces are pervasive, so you can wield the CMS or create content on just about any device that takes your fancy. Improved accessibility features are front and centre, as is security thanks to more granular control over user roles. Exporting content between Drupal instances, or between test and production rigs, has been improved.
