AI Coding Tools for Drupal Development

AI coding tools like Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot are increasingly part of how developers write, review, and maintain code. This guide covers how to use them effectively in the context of Drupal development.

Drupal has a rich set of conventions, APIs, and a vast contrib ecosystem that AI tools won't know about by default. The pages in this guide will help you configure your tools with Drupal-specific context, orient you to what the Drupal community is building in this space, and point you to the resources and community where this work is actively happening.

If you are looking to add AI capabilities to a Drupal site — chatbots, content generation, semantic search — see the AI module instead.
