What you can build using Site Studio

Site Studio accelerates Drupal 9 website development and enhances the website editing experience. Its visual user interface allows you to build the majority of the theme layer (front-end) of a Drupal website. The overview below summarizes what you can build using Site Studio.

For the content author

Page content layout

Provide content editors with a powerful content layout and editing experience to create rich content and user experiences. Define the level of power and flexibility you provide editors based on their skill and the control you want to provide them.

For the site builder

Menu templates

Create menus templates for Drupal menus. From simple list menus to multi-level interactive menus. Place menu templates within your Master templates to apply them globally across your website.
