Has anyone ever messed around with or got into Drupal? Its known to be one of the most powerful PHP frameworks out there but it's really hard to get into.
So can anybody give me some pointers?
Drupal is not a PHP framework like Zend, Laravel or CodeIgniter. It is a CRM framework, ideal for setting custom websites up for clients and allowing them to easily change the content without requiring additional coding work. It is not really for general website production like an MVC framework, nor would I think it would be the right fit for a web game.
That said, CRM jobs make up a large portion of what freelance web developers do for clients, and many of them make a good living off of just knowing a handful of them well.
