For those who want more control over the experience provided by the developer portals integrated into Apigee, Drupal 10 provides a powerful open-source, enterprise-level content management system (CMS). Using Apigee's modules for Drupal 10, you can build a fully customized developer portal with greater flexibility and control over the developer experience. Because the Drupal 10 projects and these modules are open-source, you can extend and contribute to their development and leverage the knowledge of the Apigee and Drupal communities.
Get up and running quickly with Apigee Kickstart
The fastest way to get a developer portal site up and running with Apigee is to use the Apigee Developer Portal Kickstart. Apigee Developer Portal Kickstart is a Drupal distribution that enables you to quickly evaluate using Drupal 10 to create an Apigee developer portal. The Kickstart bundles together all of the open source Apigee Drupal modules and libraries that you need to create a portal, configure a connection to Apigee or hybrid, showcase your API products, and publish your API reference documentation.
Get Started
Instructions for installing the Kickstart distribution can be found on Drupal.org at Apigee Developer Portal Kickstart. The Kickstart installer will prompt you for all the information needed to install Drupal 10 core, configure your connection to Apigee, and get your site up and running with a customizable theme. The Kickstart also includes preconfigured Drupal page entities for your developer portal homepage, API catalog page, and Get Started page. Modules for FAQs, Blogs and Forums to build your developer community are also included.

The Kickstart distribution includes a customizable home page, Get Started page, and API catalog page. Each of these pages can be modified to reflect your company's brand, logo, and customized developer experience.

Publish your API Documentation with the Apigee API Catalog
Apigee's API Catalog module lets you document your APIs in your Drupal 10 developer portal using OpenAPI specifications and Apigee SmartDocs. Publishing API documentation to your portals makes it easy for developers to learn, test, and evaluate your APIs.

Choose your hosting provider
Using the open source Apigee Drupal 10 modules provides you with complete control over the developer experience in your portal.
