The long time to build a system is often pointed out as a drawback of using Drupal in web development.

Site speed is crucial, particularly nowadays, when modern websites are more dynamic and interactive. The traditional approach of serving pages is notably inefficient in this context. Numerous techniques exist to achieve optimal performance, and one such method is the BigPipe technique, originally developed at Facebook. The good news is that the BigPipe module, which incorporates the same functionality, has been integrated into Drupal 8 core since version 8.1.

Layout Builder allows quickly creating website layouts from pre-built components added to sections. By default, Drupal provides four types of sections: one, two, three, and four columns. These columns have a predefined behavior the editors have no control over. Drupal offers the ability to create our own types of sections, so we can tailor them to fit our project. This is the process we'll show you in our article.

Layout Builder is a complex functionality that, as soon as it’s installed, may not suit every website. However, it can be customized to work appropriately for almost any website. Such a procedure may seem complicated and costly. Fortunately, there are modules available to extend the standard functionality. In this text, we’ll look at one of them - the Bootstrap Layout Builder which aims to adapt the Layout Builder to the specifics of Bootstrap.

The website loading speed is a very important aspect in the user's perception of the portal. Then how can you speed up the loading of a website that has a lot of media or iframes?
