Welcome to the second installment of our three part Drupal 8, Pantheon & GitKraken series.

For those of you who know me well, you know I do not like to play around with code all that much or even use command line tools if I can avoid it. There are many reasons for this but mostly I am just not that comfortable setting up, maintaining and using these type of tools.  That being said I do like to site build in Drupal….A LOT :). 

Lately I have been creating and managing Drupal 8 sites with Pantheon and using a Git client called GitKraken to manage my version control workflow and I have to say the experience has been FANTASTIC!

We love Drupal Commerce!

Its an extremely flexible ecommerce framework largely built on rules which as a site builder makes me very happy.

It is above and beyond our current go-to platform for building ecommerce sites. However if you have ever built a site with Drupal Commerce you know that there are few main components, Product Types, SKU’s and Product Displays.

For those of you who are unfamiliar, when using Drupal Commerce you create a content type as a “Display” which will house certain “Product Types” via a product reference field. You can have multiple product types which will house all of your various SKU’s.
