  These are the notes from my session at DrupalCamp Florida

Spin up a free Drupal CMS 2.0 site at <https://drupalforge.org>

**Drupal AI Course at YouTube** - [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzsVnB6YQ3k&amp;list=PL-uvhR-tfZnWEbxaDXMzQcrkbcmLpN421&amp;index=1](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzsVnB6YQ3k&list=PL-uvhR-tfZnWEbxaDXMzQcrkbcmLpN421&index=1)

**Session Outline:**

- Using DrupalForge to test (see above)
- The new Byte theme and templates (and the difference between a theme and template)
- The Dashboard
- The Modules that get installed
- The Basics of CMS 2
- Drupal Canvas
    - Building Canvas landing pages
    - Building Content Type templates with Canvas
- Drupal AI (and AI in Canvas)
    - Site Building with AI
    - Content with AI and CKEditor
    - Automators
    - Assistants
    - Building your own Components with AI
- Issues and things that aren't quite ready

Would I use Drupal CMS 2 right now - actually - yes! It's come a long way since v.1 - and Canvas is very usable. It depends on the themes as they become available. (You can't use a standard theme in CMS - you must use a theme that is component based - see <https://dripyard.com>

**The session:**



 **Overview of Drupal CMS 2 with Webwash** - <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1ifYk7KiaA>

**Using AI to generate a component.**

- Go into a template and click the AI tool.
- Add a prompt - create a component that has a Header and text area
- Save the Component

This is what you'll get:
