Build your first website on Drupal

Drupal, an open source content management system, is used to make many of the websites and applications you use every day. Drupal has great standard features, like easy content authoring, reliable performance, and excellent security.

Now get started on Drupal 8 with step-by-step guidance from Pantheon’s expert Drupal trainer, David Needham.

But wait... Drupal 9 was released in June 2020. Should I still be learning about Drupal 8?

Absolutely! The fundamental building blocks of Drupal 8 are identical in Drupal 9. In fact, we still used Drupal 8 in our recent Getting Started with Drupal 9 workshop. We're actively working to update this video series, but in the meantime, please enjoy this video series knowing that what you learn will be relevant for any version. 

And if you're curious about the Drupal 9-specific things, check out our Drupal 9 Supplemental that we created to go along with this workshop.
