Not getting into the for/against Drupal thing, but I wonder what percentage of Drupal admin users are non programmers. I've built a lot of Drupal sites and exactly zero non programmers have ever done anything more than use pre-existing fields.
I will say that I think it's a noble goal to allow non programmers to build something powerful, but in my experience it translates to programmers being able to build features insanely quickly rather than handing that power over to non programmers. Maybe it's different in other sectors.
- jacquesm 11y agoI haven't seen any non-programmers do this either. What I have seen is the programmers for certain drupal systems ending up cleaning up vast messes made with drupals extensive customization abilities because the people making the changes did not foresee the effect these changes would have on the application as a whole. There is a whole eco-system around drupal of consultants who know just a little bit more than their clients to get them back out of the trouble they're in.
