I am new to drupal, but have successfully built a themed intranet complete with forums, ldap integration, and feed content in just a day or so! Amazing software!
I would like to maintain a list of software packages for handling biological data. There are a few pieces of information that I want to capture:
- Package name
- URL
- Contact person
I assume that the best way to do this is to use a custom content type? Of course, I will want to categorize the software by use, language, OS, commercial/noncommercial, but I think this is straightforward with standard taxonomy tools. What I am looking for is some guidance about how to have users interact with these types of objects, such as creating new software nodes, getting lists of software packages in a flexible way, and having users be able to drill down to get software that matches their needs. Any suggestions on where to go for documentation or examples?
Thanks,
Sean
