This project extends the drupal-composer/drupal-project by adding modules from the popular "Top modules" blog series on Mediacurrent.com. Most of the instructions from that project readme apply here as well.
This project is meant as an educational tool that will save you time getting setup.
The easiest way to get started is to install composer (if you haven't already) and run the following commandL
composer create-project mediacurrent/mc_top_modules
This will download Drupal core, recommended "Top modules" and their dependencies. Once that is done you can install Drupal as normal! Downloaded modules are disabled by default but you can enable then on the "Extend" page within the Drupal admin.
