Nowadays, software has become crucial for the functioning of large publishers. It supports the process of creating, publishing and distributing content, and also allows monitoring and analyzing users and market data. In the following article, we would like to introduce you to one of the available tools that improve the process of creating a website and increase the quality of daily work on content. This solution is the Thunder distribution based on Drupal CMS.

Layout Builder allows quickly creating website layouts from pre-built components added to sections. By default, Drupal provides four types of sections: one, two, three, and four columns. These columns have a predefined behavior the editors have no control over. Drupal offers the ability to create our own types of sections, so we can tailor them to fit our project. This is the process we'll show you in our article.

The European DrupalCon event returns in a stationary version. This time it'll be held in Prague on September 20-23. In this article, we'll recommend some of the many sessions planned.

We use multiple environments when developing software. We care most about the production environment which is accessible to all users. In the test environment, we check that the changes we make function as they should. There is also a local environment - we could say it is the most important one. It is where application development and maintenance starts. What exactly is it, what does it provide us with and how do we generate it? Let's get down to specifics.

It would be a strange world if we didn’t use names, but call each other "you" or, even worse, use numbers. In everyday life, we are well aware of the importance of our name.

Therefore, it shouldn't be surprising that the name of our website domain is as important as our own name.

We will show you the basic aspects that are worth paying attention to and the tools that make work easier.
