Drupal is a CMS which can be used for various objectives. Drupal no longer is a CMS which can only be used to manage and maintain your blog but it can be used as a basis for a wide variety of different websites. Because at the end of 2012 the Belgian government decided to switch to Drupal as their underlying CMS, many website owners and administrators followed in their footsteps and also switched to Drupal. The TrappenTeck company was one of these companies who required a new website and who immediately opted for Drupal as their CMS.
The PSD to Drupal conversion process
Because Drupal is one of the most popular CMS available we are employing various developers who are specialized in the PSD to Drupal process. As soon as the PSD files were completed and the order was submitted, our PSD to Drupal developers could start converting the PSD files. To ensure a proper website functionality in all modern browsers, on different tablets and smartphones we opted to first build the HTML, CSS and Javascript in order to start with a strong website basis and to easily convert the website to a Drupal theme. Upon completing the HTML and CSS we were ready for thorough testing. Testing was not only executed on various computers with different operating systems, on tablets and on mobile phones but also in online test environments to be absolutely certain about a proper display. After a final approval of this whole process phase we could kick off the real Drupal CMS programming phase.
Development of a unique Drupal theme
Before our Drupal developer kicked off this phase, he made a final review to ensure the correct structure was used in order to be able to manage the website in a user-friendly way via the straightforward admin panel. After drafting a complete structure our developer manually developed the Drupal theme. Because the project contained a limited number of pages but these pages nevertheless contained a long list of different elements on different pages the complete realization of the fully-functional theme took about 9 working days.
Free installation
After our Drupal developer completed his phase, we performed a last check. Several of our developers participated in this last validation exercise to make sure we hadn’t overlooked any functionalities, issues or bugs. When we believed everything was looking okay, we requested the client to take a look. The client was very satisfied about the whole PSD to Drupal process and after installing the project on our client’s server we realized another successful Drupal template.
