Why Distributions?

Drupal out of the box is...

... quite naked

Why Distributions?

Drupal out of the box is...

lNo content typeslNo ViewslNo RoleslNo RuleslNo PanelslNo Webformsl...

Bug or Feature?

Drupal is primarily a Framework...

... that you can use to build practically anything

Why Distributions?

So: Let's install some modules...

... but which ones?

Over 100 modules for slideshows alone?

Why Distributions?l Panels ↔

Contextl i18n ↔

Entity translationl CKEditor ↔

Wysiwygl Administration menu ↔

Admin ↔ Dashboard & Overlay

l Lightbox2 ↔ Colorbox ↔ Thickbox

l Menu Trails ↔ Node breadcrumb ↔ Hansel breadcrumbs ↔ Custom breadcrumbs ↔ Taxonomy Breadcrumb ↔ Menu Breadcrumb

Why Distributions?

And don't forget dependencies!

Why Distributions?

What to do?

... hire a genius?
