Drupal

"Come for the software, stay for the community"

Patterns for developing sophisticated websites (not to mention quickly) with Drupal, the technology now responsible for powering Whitehouse.gov, Economist, Examiner, and many other high profile web presences. In this talk we will quickly discuss how to get up and running in the LAMP stack, then move onto some basic site building with common "contrib" modules; additional coverage will focus on how to handle Dev->Stage->Prod.
