jorgediazhav

In this session, I will guide you through the steps required to effective setup a dev workflow to enable your team members to synchronize and develop Drupal 8 websites based on Configuration Management, Git, and Drush.

This is just one of many different approaches you may find online and it is based on our development and training experience with Drupal 8 at our company.

Bring your laptop

If you are willing to do it yourself, we'll be happy to see you achieve it. Our purpose is to show it is easy to set up this workflow and this will allow anyone to start a new Drupal 8 site and keep track of all changes related to it. Just ensure to have "Acquia Dev Desktop" running on your computer.

For sure, you will clear out a lot of doubts on how to actually set up your team, right away so I will demonstrate it step by step.

The session is divided in a small intro and the rest is a live demo based on the following sample scenario:

  • A "hypothetical" team of just 2 developers: Amy and Mario
  • A new Drupal 8 Project site we will be running on Acquia Dev Desktop.
  • And a GitHub repository for it (we will create a public repository for this exercise
