Backdrop CMS is the Drupal fork. It has most of the features seen in Drupal 8 and beyond (as well as some new ones), but with a built-in upgrade path for your current website. The focus of the Backdrop project is more affordable long-term website maintenance, starting with the cost of upgrades.
If you still have a Drupal 7 website, and are wondering what its future might hold, you might want to attend the Backdrop CMS summit at BADCamp this year.
In this summit we will cover:
- What is Backdrop CMS / Differences from + Similarities to Drupal
- Running websites on both Backdrop and Drupal at the same time
- API compatibility between legacy Drupal 7 code + Backdrop CMS
- Cost of upgrading to Backdrop vs migrating to Drupal 8/9/10
- An example upgrade that saved the organization $200,000 or more.
