Saplings - Gin Admin Experience Drupal Recipe

A simple Drupal Recipe for installing and configuring the Gin admin theme and supporting base modules.

Configuring Drupal for Recipes

If you need to configure your project to use recipes, please see the Getting Started: Configuring Drupal 11 to Apply Recipes¶ documentation page.

Requiring this Recipe

For Drupal 11.2 and above

composer require kanopi/gin-admin-experience:^2

For Drupal 10, 11.0/1

For Drupal 10 and 11.0/1 recipe can only be applied when Stark is the admin theme as set by the minimal profile if you are starting a new site. Use the 1.x release for that.

composer require kanopi/gin-admin-experience:^1

Applying this Recipe

Using Drush

drush recipe ../recipes/gin-admin-experience

Using Drupal core's script

From your webroot run php core/scripts/drupal recipe ../recipes/gin-admin-experience

Unpacking this Recipe

For the best recipe experience, make sure you project is configured to use Drupal core's Recipe Unpacking system. When a recipe is required, this plugin "unpacks" it by moving the recipe's dependencies directly into your project's root composer.json, and removes the recipe as a project dependency.

New projects started from Drupal 11.2 will most likely have this on by default, but it can be configured on and Drupal 10/11 project.
