Drupal’s Growing Complexity Spurs New Initiatives to Support Beginners and Developers
A recent blog post by Carlos Ospina highlights the challenges Drupal faces as it continues to evolve, particularly in attracting beginners and smaller businesses. The shift toward more advanced features since Drupal 8 has led to a decline in entry-level adoption, as users opt for simpler platforms like Wix and Squarespace. The post points out that this increasing complexity has also caused a shortage of junior developers, driving up costs for clients. However, initiatives such as Drupal CMS, the IXP Fellowship, and the Drupal Open Curriculum aim to simplify the platform and foster new talent, potentially helping to address these issues.
