Before you start

Hello, I'm a few years out of drupal.
I decided to have a bit of fun with drupal 8, seeing it as very promising, but need to re-grasp all the concepts that changed in all these years.

I need to build a catalog of products. It will not be a shop, just a directory of products.
I also want to do it with D8, as a learning project. So exclude D7 and exclude Commerce.

There will be multiple types of products. 30, maybe 50+, still not planned in detail.
Each product page will list that product's attributes/detailed specifications.

Apart from the "universal" specifications like size (length, W, H, weight etc) there will be some very specific fields (sometime a few, sometime dozens very specific) different for every product type .

I am seeking path of least resistance to quickly create a site and not be burdened by technical details and to move on quickly into using it for my purpose.

It will be a personal site for a side-gig. I originally intended to use ZF2 just because I know it and I know what I'll be in for and how long it will take me to make a site. But then chose to look into Drupal because it is a powerful CMS engine and can make sites fast as I understand.

I am totally totally new to Drupal I know next to nothing and I have never used a CMS before.

I am using Kloxo-mr control panel on CentOS 6 server. Which PHP type I should choose so that it will work with Drupal 7 and other modules. Available php type is given below -

mod_php_ruid2
mod_php_itk
suphp
suphp_event
suphp_worker
php-fpm_event
php-fpm_worker
fcgid_event
fcgid_worker

And which php branch I should use - php55u_ or php55w_ ? What is the difference ?

I am trying to create a website where users can fill out a form about a class they are teaching (location, time, subject, etc.) and users can then search the populated database for classes.

Is this something that can be done with Drupal without an intense amount of coding?

i did not understand one line in https://github.com/openshift/drupal-quickstart
Can u help me?

Check the contents of php/* into your Git repository (in the php/* dir)

What Does this means
How can i check content into git

Hello guys,

I am looking into Drupal's multilingual import ability and I am confused. There are 2-3 modules that I look into like Taxonomy Imports, Feeds and Migrate but I have the feeling that the importing of multilingual data into Drupal, is a bit not straightforward.

What I want is to import a bilingual site, into taxonomy, and three different content types with their fields. Is that doable?

Of course maybe I am mistaken because I haven't tried it yet.

Thanks
