I remember when I started with Drupal.There was only a handful of modules than today. I mean something like 600 or so ...
In fact, there were quite a few, had printed the whole list of all modules Drupal superiors and took home a stack of paper to read about each of them. Fast forward to count module today and it was coming close to 6,000!
Can you say "Holy ton load modules Drupal looking through the Batman!"How do we really know that are good and which are bad?
To get started, keep this in mind. Drupal is open source, and virtually anyone can contribute to the project.While the future of Drupal version control will put some more barriers to entry for anyone presenting potential duplicate modules (thereby preventing the wonderful form of release of shame) still do not know really what modules are coded well and which don't-unless dig into their code.
So, the quick response to this problem on knowing who are the main Drupal modules, is to use/project/usage drupal.org.questo statistics is the only place you can see what modules are used more from multiple sites (at least those reporting to drupal.org).
In this video, I begin to number one and head down to form 50 within usage statistics. I haven't worked with them all, but I am familiar with what do more. Provide an overview of the modules and what within Drupal.
If this is a good approach, and like me, to go forward, then please leave a comment on this posting!
