  16. Re:Drupal != Pro on Book Review: Pro Drupal 7 Development, Third Edition · · Score: 1

    I need to disagree with Drupal being a nasty set of code. It is a CMS - content management system and it is made to grow and handle large sites. Using it on my own and like how you can add powerful modules to increase the use of the system. The learning curve can be a little large, but it is a powerful CMS and there is lots it can do. Reading books such as the above may help ( I have not read the book) There is also online resources and local meetings.
