Are you familiar with the Microsoft Web Platform Installer and the integrated Web Applications Gallery? These Microsoft offers made it easy to install and configure Drupal on Windows. But when building, optimizing and deploying Drupal on Windows and IIS it was still difficult. Come see the beta of a brand new product from Microsoft that covers the entire workflow, from pulling down the latest build of Drupal for Windows all the way to deploying it to a hosted environment, all in one place. You’ll see a complete and very lightweight stack, that includes a code editor that provides syntax highlighting for PHP and integrates with the Web Application Gallery, so you can easily acquire, install, configure, optimize and deploy your Drupal applications. We will demonstrate how you can get up and running; how to build a simple Drupal site from first principles, including acquiring and installing all the dependencies you may need, such as PHP and MySQL, then deploying the Drupal application on the web. We'll also demonstrate additional value-added features such as a built-in SEO Auditor of the final site and some special features and capabilities that you'll have to attend this session to see.
