About Drupal

Drupal is a flexible, open-source content management platform used to build versatile, structured content experiences across devices and channels. It is API-first and composable, with low-code options for marketers and enterprise-grade accessibility and security for IT teams. A global contributor community extends it for websites ranging from university portals to large organizational platforms, with no vendor lock-in and a lower total cost of ownership.
