Abstract

In this chapter, we’ll give you an overview of Drupal. Details on how each part of the system works will be provided in later chapters. Here, we’ll cover the technology stack that Drupal runs on, the layout of the files that make up Drupal, and the various conceptual terms that Drupal uses, such as nodes, hooks, blocks, and themes.
