Ask HN: Is Drupal suitable for an AppStore?
Hi, I am creating an AppStore for western indie app/software/game developers who wish to penetrate the chinese market. Is it feasible to use Drupal? I am a desktop developer with little experience in web development so I am hoping Drupal would make things easier..
- minimaxir 12y agoPlugins are the equivalent of an App Store for CMSes.
- debacle 12y agoIn what ways does Drupal fit your use case over a more abstract framework like Symfony? Drupal is notoriously slow, and I've never really enjoyed working with it as a programmer (though it does have some nice, albeit dangerous, features if you are a non-programmer).
- tarminian 12y agoDrupal 8 is now built on top of Symfony. Slow? Never had that experience, it has always been super fast for me. It runs on php, and that is dangerous in and of itself.
