Understanding the core of Drupal

A 1414-page technical reference on the Drupal 11.4 core, verified line by line against the source. Not how to use Drupal: how it is built on the inside, and why.

This book is a translation into English of Entendiendo el core de Drupal which was originally written in Spanish

About the Book

There is documentation about Drupal. What there isn't is a reference that treats the core as what it is: a software system with an architecture of its own, explicit contracts, and design decisions that have consequences in the code you write on top of it.


This book fills that gap. It doesn't explain how to build a site: it explains how the kernel works on the inside, what contract each service exposes, and why the system behaves the way it does. It runs to 1414 pages and 254 chapters organized in six parts, from the `Drupal\Component` subsystems — plain PHP that doesn't know Drupal exists — to the 74 core modules, one per chapter.

About the Author

César Manuel Sánchez Felipe

Desarrollador Drupal.

Trabajo como desarrollador principal, y lo que me interesa del oficio es la parte que casi nunca se escribe: por qué el core está construido como está y qué consecuencias tiene eso en el código que ponemos encima.

De ahí salió *Entendiendo el core de Drupal*.

Contribuyo en drupal.org y publico código en GitHub.
