This 40-minute technical session explores how Drupal CMS can evolve into a modern, scalable, and intelligent digital experience platform using Single Directory Components (SDC), Drupal Canvas, API-driven architecture, and AI capabilities. Attendees will learn how to build reusable static, dynamic, API-powered, and AI-enabled components that improve content flexibility, frontend integration, personalization, maintainability, and development efficiency.
The session will cover SDC and Canvas fundamentals, component types, static versus dynamic components, API integration, and practical approaches to embedding AI capabilities into Drupal components. Real-world examples and a live demonstration will showcase how this architecture enables faster development, consistent user experiences, intelligent content delivery, and future-ready Drupal solutions.
The session will demonstrate how this approach improves reusability, consistency, development efficiency, frontend flexibility, and integration with external systems, enabling teams to create scalable and future-ready Drupal solutions.
