Config is now decoupled from code and the database. Unlike Drupal 6 and 7, developers no longer have to rely on the features module for moving configuration around. Most large Drupal sites, and some smaller ones, require per environment configuration. Prior to Drupal 8 this was usually achieved using a combination of hard coding config variables and features.https://www.davehall.com.au/blog/2011/05/17/drush-make-and-module-dependencies/Tue, 17 May 2011 00:00:00 +0000https://www.davehall.com.au/blog/2011/05/17/drush-make-and-module-dependencies/Drush make is a wonderful tool for constructing Drupal platforms. A lot of Drupal developers are used to adding a list of modules, a few libraries and theme or 2 then running drush make to build their platform. It all seems pretty easy. What if I told you module developers could make things even easier for site builders? Some contrib modules depend on third party libraries, and due to various reasons they can’t always be stored in git repositories on drupal.
