Drupal is a content management platform that can power all kinds of web sites-from simple online brochures to more advanced sites that include social networking, blogs, e-commerce, and business portals. It is free, open source software that allows anyone to quickly and easily build web sites.
Its full range of modules-including user permissions, security mechanisms, JavaScript menus, WYSIWYG editors, and more-helps create the foundation for a powerful web site. Combined with its templating system (and a few tips and tricks), any graphic design file can be used to create a Drupal web site.
