Abstract
In Drupal parlance, distributions refer to variations of Drupal that include Drupal core in its entirety and other items such as themes, modules, libraries (for front-end assets), and installation profiles. Distributions can be full-featured, meaning they are comprehensive solutions for use in specialized cases, or they can act as quick-start tools that help developers and site builders get going quickly.
