Sobre
This Drupal Dev Platform mind map, created in November 2009, compares three development platforms for future Drupal development: Drupal 6, PressFlow D6 with Varnish, and Drupal 7 with Varnish. It evaluates each platform across 34 nodes covering performance, scalability, features, and modules. Key nodes include '3000x + speed w/Varnish', 'CCK in Core', and 'Integrated Testing Framework: Simpletest'. This Drupal Dev Platform template helps developers and architects assess trade-offs between stability (Drupal 6), optimized performance (PressFlow), and cutting-edge features (Drupal 7). The Drupal Dev Platform cheat sheet is organized as a three-branch comparison, making it easy to contrast options side by side.
