Codeless

Overview

The Codeless Installation is a ready-to-use Drupal CMS setup designed for site builders, content editors, and teams who don’t need to manage code.

With this installation, you can build complete Drupal websites using:

  • Drupal CMS core features
  • Carefully selected contributed modules
  • Preconfigured content types and tools

All without touching code, Git repositories, or deployment pipelines.

FlexSite handles the infrastructure and technical setup — you focus entirely on building your site.

Who is this for?

This installation is ideal for:

  • Site builders creating websites with Drupal UI
  • Marketing teams launching landing pages or corporate sites
  • Agencies delivering content-driven sites
  • Non-technical users who want Drupal without DevOps

If your workflow lives inside the Drupal admin interface, this is for you.

Limitations

Because this is a codeless environment:

  • Custom modules are not supported
  • Custom themes are not supported
  • Direct code access is disabled

If you need full developer control, see our Developer Installation instead.

When should I NOT use this?

You probably want a developer setup if:

  • You need custom PHP modules
  • You require custom themes
  • You integrate external APIs at code level
  • You manage everything through Git
