Drupal development

What Drupal development at WebPro covers

Drupal development covers more than building a new website. The work may involve taking over an existing site, applying security updates, fixing slow workflows, adding an API integration or planning a move to a supported Drupal release.

WebPro helps in both situations: we build new Drupal platforms and maintain existing systems with complex content types, multilingual content, user roles, custom modules and external integrations.

New Drupal websites and information systems

Building a Drupal platform from scratch — architecture, data model, theme implementation, content types, roles and business logic. Every project starts with a clear technical brief and ends with documented handover.

Further development of an existing Drupal site

When a Drupal site already exists, Drupal development is often a sequence of small and medium-sized changes: new content types, editorial workflows, forms, permissions, search, reports or integrations. Before starting, we check whether the change fits the current architecture or would increase technical debt.

Custom Drupal modules and integrations

Off-the-shelf modules don't cover every need. We write custom functionality — external system integrations, workflows, roles, content migration and complex business rules. Read more →

Drupal version upgrade

A Drupal 6, 7, 8 or 9 site needs a planned path to a supported release, currently usually Drupal 11. We map the risks and module compatibility, then plan and complete the work in controlled steps. Read more →

Drupal maintenance and support

Long-term technical platform management — module and core security updates, pre-deployment testing, monitoring and a change log. Read more →

Drupal audits and automated testing

Technical platform review — current state, security risks, accessibility, module health and recommendations for next steps. Read more →

Where Drupal fits

Drupal is a practical choice when an organisation needs:

• several editorial teams and permission levels;
• multilingual content with a long publishing lifecycle;
• integrations with registries, commerce or internal systems;
• structured content that is reused across channels;
• a platform that can be maintained and upgraded over several years.

These needs are common in public-sector services, education, membership organisations, international companies and content-heavy businesses.

Who Drupal development is for

Drupal development is a better fit when the website is more than a brochure and acts as a working platform with several editors, multilingual content, logged-in users, forms, API integrations, a large content archive or regulatory requirements.

If you only need a very small campaign page, Drupal may be too large. If the platform needs to evolve for years, connect to other systems and remain maintainable, Drupal is a strong choice.

How Drupal development works at WebPro

Every project starts with a clear picture of what the system needs to do. Development happens in tested steps — changes go to production after testing, not before. On longer projects the goal is to keep the platform maintainable a year from now.

The usual starting sequence:

1. describe the need and business goal;
2. check the current Drupal state or new project requirements;
3. agree a small first scope or technical brief;
4. develop in a test environment;
5. check critical workflows;
6. release with a rollback plan.

Why choose WebPro for Drupal development

WebPro focuses on long-lived Drupal platforms, not one-off campaign pages. Our way of working fits when you need a developer who considers code, tests, security updates, editorial work and future maintenance together.
