Learn Drupal 2c: My standard modules
Channel: Johan Falk
Date: 2011-12-05

This screencast shows how to download and enable a few modules I use on basically all sites, just to make adminsitration work easier. The three modules are:

* Module Filter: http://drupal.org/project/module_filter
* Administration menu: http://drupal.org/project/admin_menu
* Devel: http://drupal.org/project/devel

In the screencast, I disabled the Dashboard, Overlay and Toolbar modules, and then enabled Module Filter, Administration menu toolbar style, and Devel generate.

As a side point: There is actually a differene between projects and modules. Modules are represented by their own line in the modules list on your site. Projects are represented by their own pages on drupal.org (and projects can also be themes, distributions, and more).
