Summary

The Next for Drupal integration we covered in this chapter leveraged Next.js’s capabilities for server-side rendering, static site generation, and an enhanced user experience, while Drupal continued to serve as the backend CMS for managing and storing content, users, and other site data. By combining these technologies, developers can create high-performance, scalable, and SEO-friendly websites, taking advantage of the best features of both Next.js and Drupal in a cohesive manner.

We have completed a long journey to prepare our Drupal site for production. Along the way, you have gained extensive knowledge of how Drupal transforms data into HTML pages and API endpoints. However, technology advances rapidly, and the community releases a new version of Drupal every six months. As the focus is on user and developer ease of use, keeping up with news on upcoming Drupal versions is essential.

So, keep learning!
