Trying out Drupal CMS
I've been using Drupal for a while now. I've been using it for my own projects and previous jobs. Also using DDEV. So I really wanted to try the new Drupal CMS!
So I installed it with DDEV. According to the this guide:
https://new.drupal.org/docs/drupal-cms/get-started/install-drupal-cms/install-drupal-cms-locally-with-ddev
Just follow the prerequisits and install DDEV. And then you can install Drupal CMS with DDEV.
Local installation
First thing after installing it you get a UI saying what kind of content 'basics' you want, I chose Events, Person Profile, Blog and a few other 'recipes'.
While clicking through the (new) recipes I was amazed that this is now possible:
/admin/modules/browse/recipes
Is this like features was in D7 and such? Let's see!
Awesome things
Search in Dashboad
I saw a search icon, and a keybinding for it. So I tried it. alt + k
.
Then typed something and saw paths I know like Structure, Content, People, etc. It's like Spotlight on Mac or the command palette in VS Code. Very handy!
So far I'm impressed! I might update this post later with more thoughts.
