The Drupal 8 user interface

In this chapter, we will walk you through the key parts of the standard Drupal 8 User Interface (UI) UI focusing our attention on the main visible components like the Toolbar, Shortcuts and Drupal's main administrative menu, the Administration menu.

As you work through this chapter, please keep in mind that the intention here is merely to provide you with a quick overview and that much more detail and guided tutorial assignments will follow in later chapters.
