UI Suite (link) is an unofficial Drupal initiative that aims to ease Drupal adoption by : 

  • Standardizing Design Systems integration inside Drupal Core Entity system
  • Providing a Lowcode solution for site builders to theme Drupal Websites 

The UI Suite ecosystem is composed of a cohesive set of modules that helps : 

  • Themers / Frontend developers implement full Design Systems (Layouts system, Styles/Helpers/Utilities, Components Library, Example pages)
  • Site Builders use these implementations from Drupal backoffice (Layout Builder, Manage Display, Paragraphs, Views, Blocks, Flags, ...)
  • Backend developers use these implementations via a nice and robust API

To date, the UI Suite ecosystem is used for several Design Systems and powers hundreds of websites  :

  • Frameworks : Bootstrap
  • Large companies : Sephora, LVMH
  • Public organisations : French State, European Commission

In this session we will showcase : 

  • Technical architecture
  • Some use cases 
  • A live demo 
  • Our roadmap
