Quick Project Template

Project template for a Drupal static site generated by Quick. It pre-wires Drupal core, Quick (+ the starterkit theme), Drush, and the recipe unpacker — including the Composer repositories, allow-plugins, and stability settings — so going from empty folder to static site is just a handful of commands.

Quick start (DDEV)

# create + start the DDEV environment
ddev config --project-type=drupal --docroot=web --nodejs-version=20 && ddev start

# Drupal + Quick, fully pre-wired by this template
ddev composer create-project drupal-quick/site .

# (create-project just delivered config.dq.yml — the annotated template from
#  the installed Quick package. Edit it to change the preset, layout, recipes
#  + their options, or homepage blocks; or regenerate it interactively)
ddev composer exec -- dq-init --interactive   # optional

# fetch the recipe packages named in config.dq.yml; also writes each recipe's
# available options into it as commented blocks (uncomment to override —
# pass --exclude-options to just list them instead)
ddev composer exec -- dq-install

# install Drupal, generate + build the theme, apply recipes
ddev drush dq:scaffold

# --- add content / configure as desired ---

# generate the static export → html/, then publish it
ddev drush dq:static
ddev drush dq:deploy

What this template provides

• drupal/core-recommended + the relocated web/ docroot scaffold.
• drupal-quick/drupal-quick and drupal-quick/dq_starterkit via their VCS repositories (not yet on Packagist), with minimum-stability: dev.
• drupal/core-recipe-unpack and its allow-plugins entry, so recipes unpack without prompting.
• A post-create-project-cmd hook that runs dq-init, delivering the annotated config.dq.yml from the installed Quick package — a single source of truth that always matches the Quick version consuming it. Editing it is optional (defaults: preset minimal, the standard + blog recipes). If you create the project with --no-scripts, run composer exec dq-init yourself.

Once Quick and its packages are published to Packagist with stable tags, the repositories and minimum-stability settings here become unnecessary.
