It is obviously necessary to look for and take advantage of tools which can be used when delivering Drupal development services. It's time for another dose of information about our work at the Droptica company. Today we'll cover file versioning and application testing. Subversion Initial projects implemented with Drupal (still as OPENBIT) used the Subversion system (also known as SVN, project website) for file versioning.

Clutch (a portal ranking development companies) named us as the global leader among companies working with Drupal. This is a great success. We are among the best companies working with Drupal worldwide. The results of our work are becoming increasingly more visible. Since the beginning, Droptica aimed providing the best drupal services.

In the first article about the tools we use, we described our project management and communication tools. Today we will show you how we manage development environments. Local copy In Droptica each programmer works on a local copy of the website. Each task is completed and committed to a separate Git branch and pushed to a remote repository. Our standard desktop system is Ubuntu therefore for a long time we got away with just installing Apache, Mysql and PHP locally.

Building web applications and websites is often a complex and time consuming task which requires a coordination of many different activities by a project manager. To manage the project we use various systems and applications described in this article. The below is described as of the time of writing the article.

For the last couple of months, we worked on our new website in Drupal 8. It took time because client work always takes precedence. But we finally did it! Here is the story. Design stage As with any new marketing website, we split the project into stages. First, we developed a content strategy - what do we really want to say and why? We wanted to avoid ad-hoc decisions done during development or design stages.
