      <title>Drupal 7 To Drupal 8 / Drupal 9 Migration? 10 Things You Should Know</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;So, are you excited to update your Drupal 6 or 7 website to Drupal 8 or 9?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Drupal 7 users, the best way for Drupal 7 to 9 upgrade is to upgrade your Drupal 7 to 8 and then to Drupal 9. Earlier, &lt;a href="https://addwebsolution.com/drupal-migration-upgrade"&gt;Drupal migrations&lt;/a&gt; used to entail massive re-platforming efforts. But the upgrade from Drupal 8 to Drupal 9.0 is more like an incremental upgrade.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Meaning, people using Drupal 8 can enjoy the simple upgrade path from Drupal 8 to Drupal 9.0, avoiding the other big migration project. But what about people who are still using Drupal 7 and now want to &lt;a href="https://addwebsolution.com/blog/move-drupal-8-be-ready-drupal-9"&gt;migrate to Drupal 9?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you are using Drupal 7, it's the right time to migrate to Drupal 8 (or 9). This blog will tell you different ways of migrating your website from Drupal 7 to Drupal 8 or 9. Before we jump to it, let us understand what Drupal migration is and what if you don't migrate.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;What is a Drupal Migration?&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Migration is migrating the entire content from the Drupal 7 version to Drupal 8 (or Drupal 9). The process includes configuration of content types, file types, image styles, etc., and contents like paragraphs, taxonomy terms, etc. As soon as the Drupal 9 version is released, both D7 and D8 versions will reach their end of life in November 2021; you will no longer receive support &amp;amp; fixes from the Drupal community Drupal 7 and 8. Meaning you don't have much time to take the call.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Should I Migrate To Drupal 8 Or Drupal 9?&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is one such question that people are searching over the internet. So, what's the main difference between Drupal 8 and Drupal 9? Drupal 8 was released with significant changes in themes, contributed modules, and configuration data, and Drupal 9 is the same Drupal 8 sophistication with deprecated code. We will talk about this term deprecated code later in this blog.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Can I Jump Straight To Drupal 9?&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Drupal 7 migration ecosystem is available in Drupal 9. It means you can jump directly to Drupal 9 if you don't want to go through Drupal 8. Drupal 9 has a migrate_drupal module which you need to migrate to Drupal 8 from Drupal 7.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you intend to go through this direct road to Drupal 9 from Drupal 7, keep in mind that all Drupal 7 to 8 migration considerations will still be applied. You'll have to do the entire migration planning, deal with tooling and paradigm shifts, and consider the platform requirements.&lt;br&gt;
Migrating to Drupal 9 from Drupal 7 is a valid option if you haven't migrated to Drupal 8 even after the release of Drupal 9.&lt;br&gt;
Is It Safe To Upgrade Directly From Drupal 7 to Drupal 9, Skipping Drupal 8?&lt;br&gt;
Yes, it is safe to jump directly to your Drupal 9 from Drupal 7. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Here is what you should know:&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The APIs of Drupal 7 that don't have conversions will be left behind; there is no guarantee for full coverage.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This method will demand the same effort as migrating from D7 to D8 to D9 as it is a complete rebuild.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Since Drupal 9 is not backward compatible, you can't date back to Drupal 7 if any error occurs in Drupal 9 after migration.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These are some surprises you might encounter if you jump directly to Drupal 9 from Drupal 7. Therefore, the most sensible approach is migrating to Drupal 8 and Drupal 9.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We can say that migrating to Drupal 8 is feasible from the above discussion because you can start incorporating changes into your new site directly without waiting for a move away from Drupal.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Top Skill Sets That An Advance Level Drupal Developers 'Must' Have</title>
      <dc:creator>Sapna T</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Tue, 29 Jun 2021 12:49:12 +0000</pubDate>

      <guid>https://dev.to/tolambiasapna/top-skill-sets-that-an-advance-level-drupal-developers-must-have-3j0n</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Drupal is a leading CMS for businesses of all types and sizes. Many companies are optimistic that the CMS will evolve and expand in tandem with their company as a solid and robust open-source platform. However, you need to hire an advanced-level web developer who is well-versed in the Drupal framework.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So, how do you find a developer with these skill sets? What are the skills you need to look for while &lt;a href="https://addwebsolution.com/hire-drupal-developers"&gt;hiring an advanced-level Drupal developer?&lt;/a&gt; An advanced-level Drupal developer should be aware of the skills necessary to design a site that matches or exceeds your expectations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When interviewing potential Drupal developers, you can go over the skills they have to give and how those skills translate to Drupal. To make it simpler for you, we have prepared a list of few key skills your developer should know. As a result, you should prepare to employ a Drupal developer ready to design the ideal Drupal website for your requirements.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;A Strong Knowledge of PHP &amp;amp; PHP Frameworks&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While several developers can sail from one CMS to the next, primary coding languages need to be familiar to the developer to work with Drupal. As Drupal 7 gets created with PHP and Drupal 8 is constructed with Symfony (a PHP framework), you need to have working experience with PHP and PHP frameworks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The customized production of Drupal also relies on MySQL and JQuery information. MySQL understanding is required to set up your Drupal database, while JQuery (javaScript library), primary DOM, occurrences, effects, and AJAX functions are simpler to do.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;experience Installing &amp;amp; Building Drupal Modules&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Drupal modules enable you to incorporate a wide range of third-party resources and tools into your site. As a result, your web page will serve as both a portal for accessing all of your most commonly used resources from a single location and a more highly personalized tool for your website visitors to use.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition to installation, your developer should be able to create modules. If you have an application with no modules in mind, the developer needs to develop a personalized module for you.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Debugging &amp;amp; Updating a Drupal Site&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Aside from knowing how to use Git version control, Drupal developers should find bugs in their code as they write it. At the same time, no developer can spot any errors or issues while coding, the correction of mistakes will save time and prevent further problems during coding processes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Although debugging during the development phase is beneficial, fixing bugs after the site goes live is critical. Not all Drupal developers provide post-launch maintenance, but those who do will make it much easier to ensure that your site is bug-free, up to date, and provides the best user experience for your users.&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;WordPress has rolled-out its last release of 2020 on 8th December – WordPress 5.6 (the “Simone”). The latest WordPress version not only includes a few major updates and new features, but it also includes many improvements. While some are much needed, a few caused security and compatibility with existing WordPress websites. This blog post reviews how new improvements may cause security vulnerabilities or break down your website.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;WordPress 5.6, the last release of 2020, rolled out on 8th December with dozens of improvements and new features. WordPress 5.6 has received positive feedback from the developer community so far, probably because it has not broken anything. But that’s a half-truth!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The latest WordPress version not only includes a few major updates and new features, but it has a huge number of minor improvements and bug fixes reported in the earlier versions. And a few of the changes or enhancements introduced have repercussions considering the security and compatibility of the existing WordPress websites. Let’s dig into how WordPress 5.6 can break your website like its ancestor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;The upgraded version of jQuery Migrate Plugin – A good initiative with a “Negative” impact&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Earlier, when WordPress 5.5 released, millions of websites stopped functioning normally since jQuery was removed. Although WordPress made an announcement a long time back about their move to modernize WordPress, many website owners left with a website that was stopped displaying at all or locked out of their website.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That was the first dose of modernizing WordPress by forcing the WordPress ecosystem to change their code and onboard with the newest jQuery version. With WordPress 5.6, the WordPress team has taken the modernization to the next level by updating jQuery Migrate Plugin to the next version – 3.3.1!&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Today’s times of cut-throat competition demand high-quality applications that deliver collective client experience. Most of the business owners are worried about their IT infrastructure as it requires advanced apps that ensure security, flexibility, and robustness. Small and large businesses focus on making their business processes run smoothly using digital transformation. Enterprises are focusing on innovative trends to modernize their digital infrastructure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;DevOps help businesses become more agile and reliable. As businesses deal with the growing needs with stable IT services, DevOps helps to deliver the right technology solutions – CI/CD, regular monitoring, and maintenance of a production environment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Kubernetes is an effective tool for CTOs, CIOs, IT business owners, and product owners as it helps them achieve their business objectives.&lt;/b&gt;Using &lt;a href="https://addwebsolution.com/kubernetes-consulting-services"&gt;Kubernetes Consulting Services&lt;/a&gt;, enterprises can save a lot of money as it requires less manpower to manage IT infrastructure.

      <title>Hackproof Your AWS Cloud Set Up in a Few Simple Steps </title>
      <dc:creator>Sapna T</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Mon, 14 Dec 2020 13:45:08 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/tolambiasapna/hackproof-your-aws-cloud-set-up-in-a-few-simple-steps-2n8c</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/tolambiasapna/hackproof-your-aws-cloud-set-up-in-a-few-simple-steps-2n8c</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://addwebsolution.com/aws-cloud-consulting"&gt; AWS cloud&lt;/a&gt;brings the endless potential for computing, storage, and network infrastructure for enterprises. The new opportunities for data management seek an advanced level of security to avoid the breach or loss of enterprise-wide information. AWS cloud security is a hot topic these days because of the recent security breach of Capital One. It has shaken the security community and made the organizations think about key concerns and interests related to security in Amazon Web Service environments.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Though security is a “Shared” responsibility of Amazon Web Services and the users, many people assume that it is taken care completely cloud computing service providers only. However, that is not reality! At the end of the day, whatever data enterprises put in the cloud computing solutions is their responsibility too. Let’s take a little closer look at what enterprises or cloud customers think of security.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;“According to the AWS Security Report, 91% of organizations are concerned about their cloud security.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;On the other hand, the configuration of the AWS cloud platform is considered a little complex and requires a lot of time for the cloud infrastructure management team to identify the loopholes. 35% of people believe that AWS cloud misconfiguration is the biggest security threat for the organizations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Furthermore, it is also found that legacy security tools are not working seamlessly with cloud environments or offer very limited functionality to the enterprises.”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These findings provide you with a starting point to plan out your time to scrutinize your cloud infrastructure for the security aspect. As more and more organizations are embracing cloud computing solutions, digital engineering teams are considering cloud security a priority and checking whether their cloud computing service providers deliver the right level of security for their data or not.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is the responsibility of the enterprise or business to understand and identify security loopholes, discuss with the cloud computing service provider, and establish or follow the best practices to achieve top-notch security for their AWS cloud computing solutions.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Web App vs Cloud App – How to choose the right technology?</title>
      <dc:creator>Sapna T</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Tue, 08 Sep 2020 06:09:06 +0000</pubDate>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Are you looking for starting your online venture? Do you want to transform your idea into a reality, but don’t know how to get started? Are you confused between web apps and cloud-based apps? If you have a unique idea for &lt;a href="https://addwebsolution.com/mobile-apps-development"&gt;app development,&lt;/a&gt; but you do not possess the technical expertise to build your mobile app, you can start looking for the best web development agency to guide you.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Apps have become an inseparable part of our lives. &lt;a href="https://addwebsolution.com/web-application-development"&gt;Web application development&lt;/a&gt;and mobile apps increase customer engagement, boost sales, optimize the business processes, and a lot more. There’s a blurry line between a web app and a cloud app. As there are a lot of similarities between them, a lot of online consumers to entrepreneurs to multinational companies get confused about whether they are similar. The fact: Web apps and cloud apps are similar, but not interchangeable. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There are noteworthy differences between them from the technical point of view in terms of seamless integration, scalability, and back-end infrastructure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;What’s the difference between Web Apps and Cloud Apps?&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let’s understand how web and cloud apps are different. We’ve listed some of the distinguishing factors that make web apps and cloud apps different from each other:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One of the major differences between cloud and web apps is the structure. Both types of apps require access to online services using the internet, but cloud apps do not depend on web browsers for functioning.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cloud apps can perform tasks from a local workstation without the web interface. Cloud apps can be customized to match your exact requirements. Web apps don’t offer the same level of customization options to the developers or users.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cloud apps are characterized by a sophisticated back-end to ensure security, maximum uptime, and integration with other third-party systems. It offers great scalability for features and functionality. Web apps are stored on a remote server, and they are delivered over the internet through a web interface.&lt;br&gt;
Cloud apps ensure security measures for confidential and sensitive information. On the other hand, web apps verify the clients’ information on the data servers. Hence, cloud apps are considered to be more secure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Advantages of Web Apps&lt;/h2&gt;
 

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Some of the major benefits of web apps are as follows:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Web apps can be accessed from anywhere, at any time. All you need is an active internet connection and a web browser.&lt;br&gt;
Such apps can run on multiple platforms irrespective of the device or operating system.&lt;br&gt;
These apps require less support and maintenance, resulting in reduced cost for developers and easy access for users.&lt;br&gt;
As users can access the apps if their browser is compatible, it reduces the chances of compatibility issues.&lt;br&gt;
Users can use web apps without downloading them, reducing the space availability limitations on devices.&lt;br&gt;
Web apps can be updated without reinstalling the software on hundreds and thousands of devices.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>The Future of WordPress – a Developer’s Prediction</title>
      <dc:creator>Sapna T</dc:creator>

      <guid>https://dev.to/tolambiasapna/the-future-of-wordpress-a-developer-s-prediction-48eh</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Sitting at the end of 2020  when we look back at the year 2015, we see the term ‘WordPress’ has several technical developments, massive acquisitions, regrettable spats and internal rants that entertained a lot of audience across the world. That was the year when we felt that &lt;a href="https://addwebsolution.com/wordpress-managed-hosting"&gt;WordPress Development Services&lt;/a&gt;is growing and moving from a mere Content Management System (CMS) to something bigger and better! &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Look Back Time…&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It was already a decade of WordPress being one of the famous but puttering blog platforms, and expecting WP to act as a business platform for developing websites and e-commerce could have been a faintish experience for the owners as well. If we jump back to 2005, Matt Mullengweg was just focusing on establishing Automatic and WordPress.com. It was not sure how far will it go. But increasing demand for blog websites, fuelling the popularity of the plugins and themes, and the flexibility of platform enabling users to design and develop pages as per their requirements suddenly skyrocketed the popularity of WordPress. The pace that was set in those days is what WordPress is still enjoying today in 2019. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If we see the current trends WordPress is holding the strong global market share of 34% in 2019 which is a rise of 4% compared to 2018. If we talk about the Content Management Systems then WordPress currently holds a dominating position with 60% market share. WordPress has 50,000 plugins and more than 3500 GPL licensed themes from millions of community members. Apart from still being one of the most popular blogging website platforms in 2019, WordPress is also considered best for website development for small to large businesses globally including e-commerce segment. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The best thing about WordPress is that it is now supporting several commercial packages as well. These facts play a vital role because it shows the unfading popularity of WordPress in the market in the year 2019. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Now the question is, will WordPress will always be alive?&amp;lt;//b&amp;gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We know after spending more than a decade with the favourite platform, developing so many solutions, enhancing your business across markets, building your career around the platform, etc., it can be a difficult question to even think, but the fact remains fact! As per the historical data, every website or platform which had gained popularity over the years had to face the fall in a decade or so.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Be it Myspace, AOL, or Geocities. However, Facebook has managed to look youthful and charm users adapting to the latest trends and techniques, and survive the wave of wearing off from the market. So in order to stay on the leading position for the coming decade and bring back the growing era of WordPress to the next horizon the real question is – What is WordPress planning in 2020 and beyond?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;WordPress in 2019 and beyond…&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If we see and think as per the vision of Mullenweg and how he considers the future of WordPress, it is time to adapt to the changes for something better. Shortly after releasing the breakthrough version in 2018 at Nashville, Mullenweg explained the complete planning for 2019 and beyond, for WordPress. He has diversified the growth and change of WordPress into various phases that will give birth to a completely new era and power-packed features over the period. Check out the video interview of Mullenweg at State of Word in Nashville:&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Hiring Remote Developers in India and Getting Same Productivity</title>
      <dc:creator>Sapna T</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Tue, 28 Jul 2020 14:23:42 +0000</pubDate>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;The outbreak of Covid-19 drastically altered the entire job scenario almost overnight. Today, there is precisely no sector of the economy that is not affected by this dreadful calamity. There is no definite timeline for the anti-dote to be formed for it, and thus this global calamity is projected to have a very lasting impact on most economies of the world with murky corollaries.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;Finding Remote Workers Is Ideal at This Time!&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Not working at all under this condition is certainly not the way we should approach this time, but rather we should change our way of work to attain equal productivity levels somehow. Due to this condition prevailing everywhere, some segments of the economy would be benefitted, and the organizations and firms falling under that category will be the direct beneficiaries; their workers will reap the fruits eventually. However, there may be many other sectors of the economy, which may be harmed badly; and the companies falling under them would be at a loss and so will be their workforce. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Also, as our governments are ordering the people to stay indoors to stop the further spreading of Coronavirus and to self-quarantine ourselves to combat the disease, many businesses may find the idea of hiring remote developers wherein they will outsource their development work, to achieve similar results even during this lockdown time. Many companies are on their front-foot to hire remote &lt;a href="https://addwebsolution.com/web-application-development"&gt;web application development company&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;Indeed, There Are Challenges Even with Remote Development Teams&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;1)Difficulty working through diversified global Time Zones.&lt;br&gt;
2)Dealing with language barriers and issues with proper communication.&lt;br&gt;
3)Cultural differences and mental silos that may impact understanding, interpretation, and proper communication.&lt;br&gt;
4)Bearing the high cost of keeping a project manager.&lt;br&gt;
5)Inability to meet stringent deadlines or the inability to deliver a quality product.&lt;br&gt;
6)Lack of post-deployment product support, viability, and routine maintenance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Businesses Most Likely to Be High in Demand in 2020&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;E-commerce platforms, NFC payment modules, video gaming consoles, super-mart chains, channels for live video streaming, healthcare services and providers are all going to be high in demand in the year 2020, who will be more inclined to make their online entry as never before.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Hiring Remote Developers in India&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Businesses have to have a defined set of protocols before you hire remote developers, as follows:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Organizations must define the project requirements in a clear and concise manner, and decide their expectations well in advance for the final product.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Ask the remote developers being selected to illustrate their approaches and processes that they will implement for finding solutions, and know it all from their choice of frameworks to the workflow so on and so forth.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Firms must make it simpler by having backup questions as well as programming exercises of different time durations as well as difficulty levels, which must be prepared well in advance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Also, having a list of criteria, which deem fit into the organization’s idea of hiring remote developers is good enough.&lt;br&gt;
Set some definitive expectations for the remote developers you are hiring, and assist them in working together for achieving certain project milestones.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>An Introduction to world of OctoberCMS Widgets</title>
      <dc:creator>Sapna T</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2020 11:40:13 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/tolambiasapna/an-introduction-to-world-of-octobercms-widgets-2o02</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/tolambiasapna/an-introduction-to-world-of-octobercms-widgets-2o02</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Highly customizable, easy to use, robust security and breakthrough performance, are a handful of many reasons that works behind the popularity of OctoberCMS. One of the most competitive CMS platforms, OctoberCMS has been a preferred pick for many, against its top-notch competitors. Being an active member of OctoberCMS community ever since 2016, &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;AddWeb has so far successfully accomplished 5+ projects and contributed 1 plugin. All of these and 500+ man hours of OctoberCMS-ing, we consider us to be eligible enough to share our tips and information surrounding &lt;a href="https://addwebsolution.com/octobercms-development"&gt;OctoberCMS Development.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Recently, we were working on one of our projects and the thought of the widgets playing an instrumental part in building an OctoberCMS website, crossed our mind. So, let us speak and share something about them today.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;What are OctoberCMS widgets?&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Widgets are the self-contained blocks of functionality, which helps in solving different tasks. A back-end controller prepares the widget data, along with handling the AJAX requests. It also always have the user interface.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Widgets are useful for both the back-end as well as front-end. Widgets can furthermore be categorized under three main types, as follows:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;1).Generic Widgets&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;2).Form Widgets&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;3).Report Widgets&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let us now share some details on each of the above-mentioned widget types.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;1) Generic Widgets&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They are the bundles of functionality, which can be injected to the page.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They act like components and stored inside the widgets folder.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They’re the modular bundles of functionality, supply partials and are given the titled using aliases.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They are the back-end equivalents of front-end components, whose only difference is the use of YAML extension that bank-end widget uses for configuration for binding the backend pages.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The widget classes are saved in the widgets directory, which is a part of the plugin directory.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The directory name matches the widget class name, which is written in lowercase.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Widgets are able to supply the assets and the partials.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;2) Form Widgets&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They’re the special kind of widgets in OctoberCMS.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They open up the opportunity to create new control types, which can be later used by other plugins/CMS.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They are used for adding new control types to the back-end forms.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They come with features that are commonly used in supplying data for models.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They must be registered in the Plugin.php file.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Form Widget Properties:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There are a few core properties of form widgets, which are used in the form field configuration.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One needs to first define the properties that are configurable on the class and later call the fillFromConfig method, in order to populate them inside the init method definition.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;3) Report Widgets&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They are the most popular kind of widgets.  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They are helpful in adding specific context-based content.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They can be used both, on the back-end dashboard as well as in other back-end report containers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Report Widget Classes:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Report Widgets classes should extend from the Backend\Classes\ReportWidgetBase class.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Report Widgets classes should override the render method in order to render the widget itself.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Report widgets use partials and a special directory layout.&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;As a name suggest “Plugin” is a software add-on (i.e. Set of code to achieve some specific functionality) that is installed onto a program, enabling it to perform additional features.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In OctoberCMS Plugins are the foundation for adding new features to the CMS by extending it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Purpose:&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To enable third-party developers to create abilities which extend an application&lt;br&gt;
To support easily adding new features&lt;br&gt;
To reduce the size of an application&lt;br&gt;
To separate source code from an application &lt;br&gt;
To create new plugin for OctoberCMS you must have to follow below steps:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Registration&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Directory Structure&lt;br&gt;
Registration file&lt;br&gt;
Supported methods&lt;br&gt;
Basic plugin information&lt;br&gt;
Routing and initialization&lt;br&gt;
Navigation menus&lt;br&gt;
Version History&lt;br&gt;
Plugin version file&lt;br&gt;
Extending with events&lt;br&gt;
Registration:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The registration process allows plugins to declare their features such as components or back-end menus and pages. Some examples of what a plugin can do:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Define components.&lt;br&gt;
Define user permissions.&lt;br&gt;
Add settings pages, menu items, lists and forms.&lt;br&gt;
Create database table structures and seed data.&lt;br&gt;
Alter functionality of the core or other plugins.&lt;br&gt;
Provide classes, backend controllers, views, assets, and other files.&lt;/p&gt;
