Build something amazing.
With over 200 new features and improvements.
The world’s favorite open source content management platform just got better. Drupal 8 is the new standard for creating incredible digital experiences—for small businesses, global enterprises, and everything in between.
One hundred languages
Creating great digital experiences isn’t easy. It’s even harder if you have to use tools wrapped in an unfamiliar language. That’s why Drupal gives you 100 languages to choose from, and provides 4 core modules specifically for language and translation support. Build what you want, with the languages you know best.
For use in more places
Every single content entity is translatable. Right out of the box. Control language defaults for each entity type and subtype. You can even associate up to 3 different languages with a user—1 for the profile data, 1 that’s preferred by the user, and 1 for administration. Plus, there’s now a powerful back-end system for transliteration.
In more advanced ways
Set a fallback language without changing a site’s default language. String customizations are tracked, so your translations won’t disappear with the built-in automatic updates. For low resource environments, gettext files are now imported in chunks. And with so much now in blocks, you can set block visibility per language too.
