Build and theme a site in one hour with point and clicking

Track: 
Theming
Experience: 
Intermediate

Drupal can be overwhelming when it comes to creating a site: tons of modules for functionality and a flexible theming layer. In this session we will look at a high profile Drupal website and rebuild it in one hour with a focus on following modules:

We will use our upcoming Sweaver base theme which will have support also for Panels Everywhere. We will not create any custom modules or template files during this session, only show the power of contributed modules and themes and how - with a good workflow - you can make beautiful websites in one hour time.

We need a challenge: tell us a site you want us to rebuild!

Intended audience: 

Product and site builders, themers, point and clickers.
