When you manage a website, one of your biggest priorities is keeping it safe. The challenge is that the web is full of tricks that attackers use every day. Cross-site scripting (XSS), clickjacking, and cross-site request forgery (CSRF) are just some examples of the creepy terms you wish you'd never have to hear. This may result in lost data, malicious links, stolen login sessions, the unfortunate list could go on.

• Brief description:
  • Have you ever wanted to explore the AI capabilities of Drupal, but didn't know where to start? There's a Drupal recipe for that.
• Module name/project name:
  • AI Ecosystem Recipe
• Brief history
  • How old: created in Oct 2024 by Marcus Johansson (marcus_johansson of FreelyGive.io
• Versions available: 1.0.0-alpha2, which requires Drupal 10.3 or newer
• Maintainership
  • Actively maintained
  • Number of open issues: 2 open issues, both of which are bugs
• Module features and usage
  • When you require and apply this recipe to your Drupal site, you'll be able to start working with a variety of LLMs and specialized AI-based services
  • You'll be able to ingest unstructured content and map it to structured fields automatically. Or generate a detailed SEO analysis of your nodes. There are multiple translation tools, crawlers to help work across entire sites, and more.
  • This recipe is likely something you would apply to a sandbox site, to understand the various ways to achieve something specific with AI and Drupal, and then apply whatever is best for your use case to your actual site build.
  • But it's a useful resource for a Drupalist wanting to start exploring some of the growing list of options for working with AI, or someone familiar with AI tools who wants to start using them with Drupal.

Choosing a theme isn't easy. There are a lot of choices including various free starter kits, non-standard page-builder themes, low cost commercial themes, and higher cost premium themes, such as what we sell.

Below we created a checklist you can use for any theme, regardless of vendor. We've included notes on how Dripyard addresses each topic so you can compare objectively.

Features

Does the theme style the normal Drupal user interface items such as pagers, breadcrumbs, the node preview toolbar, etc?

Like most content management systems, Drupal will expose various patterns on the front-end including items like the node preview toolbar, exposed filters, as well as more standard components like pagers, breadcrumbs, etc.
