Culture Index exists to catalog cultural institutions online, and highlight the best practices that inspire us.
Launching with a focus on museums and building from there, we are a resource for both research and discovery. Browse information about online communications, and discover ideas with examples of what’s possible for cultural institutions in the digital space.
As a community project facilitated by Base, we invite you to use and contribute to this growing resource.
Drupal
Drupal is an open-source content management system (CMS) known for its power and scalability, making it a popular choice for complex and large-scale websites. It is widely used by organizations like universities, government agencies, and enterprise-level businesses.
While Drupal’s scalability is one of its key strengths, it also comes with some disadvantages. One common drawback is its less user-friendly interface and steeper learning curve. The admin dashboard and content editing tools can be more difficult to navigate compared to more intuitive platforms like Craft CMS or Sanity, which may make it challenging for non-technical users to manage the site or make updates easily. Additionally, although Drupal is highly flexible, this flexibility often requires more development time and effort, making it less suited for smaller projects or users looking for a straightforward, out-of-the-box solution.
