Views is an essential module for Drupal sites that allows building custom lists and displays of content. It provides powerful tools for filtering, sorting, and displaying content in different layouts. Views is so important that it is being incorporated directly into the core of Drupal 8, which is planned for release in August 2013. The document then discusses how Views can be used to create a photo gallery by defining a content type for images, building a view to display thumbnail images in different styles, and using lightbox effects to view full images in a popup or slideshow.
