Chapter 5. Prepping Our Project
One of the most important things that will help you learn how to become better frontend developers is taking a look at a design mockup and dissecting how you would implement it within Drupal. This would mean asking ourselves questions along the way, such as how the homepage is put together, how a user interacts with a webpage, and how we are going to implement a specific functionality. In this chapter, we will do exactly that as we begin with a fully working HTML mockup that we can review within the browser and then convert it into a Drupal 8 theme, piece by piece. To give us a better idea of what we will be covering, let's review the following:
- We will start by reviewing our completely designed mockup with a Homepage, Interior page, Landing page, Blog posts, a Contact Us page with a Google map and web form, and other user interactions that we will need to build.
- Once we have a better understanding of what we are building, we will take a backup...
