Drupal

Drupal

Drupal is a FOSS content management system and framework, written in PHP. It is used as the back-end for many websites around the world, including many libraries, and the main EIFL website. The standard release (Drupal core) contains features such as user account management,  menu management, RSS feeds, page layout customisation and system administration. Other modules and versions are avilable to perform additional functions. It is cross-platform and available in over 60 languages.

For further details including download links and community sites, see the Drupal entry on the EIFL-FOSS tools page
