Drupal 10 is a game changer
Drupal 10 brings a new dawn in content management systems. Its intuitive user interface, upgraded third-party components, built-in SEO support, advanced workflows, and publishing control collectively offer a highly dynamic and user-friendly experience. Furthermore, it extends its language support, reinforcing its commitment to accessibility and diversity.
Increased accessibility
Drupal 10 has significantly enhanced the web's accessibility, making it more inclusive. Its extensive support for assistive technologies and WCAG 2.1 compliance enables users of all abilities to navigate, understand, and interact with the web. Drupal 10 has also introduced the Olivero, a front-end theme with improved accessibility features, to provide an optimised, mobile-first, and accessible user experience.
The power of new features
Drupal 10 boasts a host of new features, including an updated CKEditor, Symfony, Composer, and PHP. It also replaces the jQuery UI with modern JavaScript components and drops support for Internet Explorer 11. Furthermore, it introduces new functionalities like the Project Browser, Automatic Updates, Decoupled Menus, a New Default Front-end Theme, and a New Starter Kit Theme Tool. All these additions will make your site-building journey smoother and more efficient.
