The Waterloo Content Management System (WCMS) is moving from WCMS 2, built using Drupal 7, to WCMS 3, built using Drupal 8. This move, necessitated by the fact that Drupal 7 will be reaching end-of-life in November 2021, is not a straightforward one.
Drupal 8 has been completely rewritten, a change that will require WCMS 3 to be built, versus merely upgraded to.
The main objective of this project is to build a version of the WCMS that, as much as possible, replicates all existing presentation and end-user functionality of WCMS 2, using Drupal 8 at the core. Please note, this project excludes UWaterloo Scholar websites.
