Overview

Drupal 8 brings a lot of groundbreaking changes to its ecosystem, from basic architectural changes to functional ones. Understanding these changes is vital to you if you are trying to explore Drupal 8.

In this course, you will get a practical knowledge of Drupal 8, that means you can jump into any existing Drupal 8 website and understand how it is built and how it is put together. Finally, we will learn to launch a Drupal 8 website.

You’ll start off by setting up your development environment, enabling you to begin writing custom code for a Drupal-powered website through PhpStorm.

You will learn about configuration management and creating custom content types before exploring the HTML5 features included. Views were used on more than 80% of all Drupal 7 sites; now they are part of the Drupal 8 core. If you use views, you might build 10 different view displays with different filters, without knowing that a contextual filter would require only a single display.

You’ll see how to create reusable templates using PHP scripting and use plugins and develop simple plugins on your own.

Towards the end of this course, you’ll find out how to test, deploy, and monitor your application effectively.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
