DrupalCon Vienna 2017: Improving usability for site builders and administrators

This talk focuses on the challenges and solutions associated with the Drupal admin interface, including the need for UI standards and improved user experiences. The speaker discusses the recent updates from the Drupal release cycle, which introduced new features such as workflows and a settings tray but still leave some existing issues unresolved. They will outline strategies for restructuring the admin interface to better serve different user personas, as well as the importance of developing comprehensive UI standards to aid both core and contributed module developers. The session also highlights the need for more granular permissions on admin pages to enhance usability and improve access configurations for different roles, ultimately aiming for a clearer and more effective admin experience.
