This document discusses using the Features module and Drush tool to rapidly develop Drupal sites. Features allows grouping Drupal entities like views, contexts and fields into reusable modules. Drush is a command line interface for managing Drupal that allows automating tasks like downloading modules and enabling/disabling features. Drush Make allows defining a project's dependencies in a make file to simplify installation. The document demonstrates using these tools to organize a site's functionality into portable features modules.

Rapid Drupal Development with Features Module & Drush Presented By: Matthew Connerton

Beer lover (in case you're buying) @connerton

What is a feature? A feature is a collection of Drupal entities (e.g. views, contexts, CCK fields, etc.) which taken together satisfy a certain use-case Features are modules, but at a higher level of abstraction

Key differences: Code is generated, not written by hand

Collects functionality rather than creating it

Easily enabled by lay people, and they don't have to look at the core modules page to do it

Doing Drupal: Quick Start Deployments via DistributionsThom Bunting

With its extensive range of contributed modules, Drupal is a highly adaptable content management system. From huge mass-media publishing gateways such as economist.com and open data repositories such as data.gov.uk to a broad range of university websites and countless blog, community-building, and social networking projects, Drupal has proven itself capable of supporting diverse business and user requirements. Recently some useful Drupal distributions have pre-packaged leading-edge modules to facilitate creation of highly advanced, customisable websites. These distributions harness the power of Drupal's extensible modular framework, with the ease of 'famous 5 minute installation'. In this computer-lab-based session, participants review and explore newly released Drupal distributions, with focus on a distribution providing automated content and data aggregation, tagging, mapping, and trend visualisation. Learning objectives include: understanding how Drupal distributions can simplify CMS set-up and deployment; appraising use cases; evaluating institutional benefits and challenges.

Building and Maintaining a Distribution in Drupal 7 with FeaturesNuvole

Drupal 7 allows to easily build and maintain distributions, i.e. repeatable website templates; you can benefit from this in all cases, whether you aim at large-scale deployments or even at maintaining a single website. We will show how to package core and contributed modules in a distribution by using a Makefile and a profile and keeping them up-to-date during the whole development cycle. Then you will learn how to use Code-Driven Development to store all settings in a sustainable way: use the Features module to easily describe configuration in code, a proper separation between Features to make your code reusable and extendible, a well-thought design of Features to create easier development patterns, CTools and Exportables to put your configuration in code even when a module does not support it natively. Last, we will see how the distributions update mechanism allows you to create a new version of your distribution for easy and painless configuration updates of a live site.
